Citroen XM Forum

Hi all..

Realisem setting in. Also not in a very good place at all I think with a heavy heart I need to move my 24v on to someone who will sort her out...

Rear end was rebuilt by me.. Its still holding up. She does need more work. Front nearside inside arch up against the fire wall.. Front passenger out cill by the jacking point and one of my original welds at the back off side needs doing again.

She's a runner with a decent engine showing around 130k.. Inside is all there and all works.. I put lpg on but can take it all off again if need to. I need her to goto someone I know and trust because ideally I would like my plate back off her. She's a 1991 H plate..

The bonus extras if needed another shell of parts inc exhaust.. Wheels.. Front subframe and all hydraulic pipes which are unique to the 24v.. The spare car is the same colour.. I've also another new 24v centre exhaust section..

I really do not want to do this but I've been here with my 12v v6 auto which is now sadly gone.

I don't want to give her away I want what's possibly the right price for it all..

Please discuss and try convince me different.. But I don't think I've a choice,

I've also a BX td turbo d to weld up and sell too

So hit me with your worse..

I shall also put it up in other Place..

Thanks guys!

Hi Paul,

I was really sorry to hear about your difficulties and the decision to pass on the car, which if you cannot keep her certainly ought to find a deserving new home! It must be a very difficult decision, given the length of ownership and amount of work carried out.

The 24v should be saved as such a rare beast and also the earliest UK example that we know. If I may dare to suggest, with the selection of additional parts available, you ought to be asking at least £1,500.

Please do let us know how matters progress and I am so sorry that I cannot assist.

With best regards,

Matthew T.
