Robert's new XM
Evening Folks,
I have been indulging in my favourite past time, and bought another car. This time, its a 2000 2.1 TD Auto VSX XM with 119k Miles on the clock.

Re: Robert's new XM
What's all that about being a pikey student then?
It's almost a carbon copy of the one my father's currently using (brakes permitting),
though your new one is sitting on steelies not starfish wobblies? What was
Citroen up to I wonder. Yours has a towbar too - hasn't spent it's past life towing
a caravan has it - just thinking about the autobox...
hey, wait on a mo, thought you didn't really get on with autoboxes - bit like me
in being irked by the stepped speed governed changes.

NOT on the DERV Will, it was ONLY on the V6 24v PSA unit, as per Xantia
...
The other tell tail for auto adaptive is the Sport and Winter buttons are ahead of the Hydractive switch, of which Roberts does not have...
Roberts, nice spec, cruise AND Air Con...! All working??

Re: Robert's new XM
If the autobox was a HP20 I wouldn't have given the car to my father to use
- the HP18 drove me mad!
No AC on the one here though the sunroof ACTUALLY works - woohoo.
Never seen the cruise on the car work mind; surely the only real benefit
of an automatic?
