Congratulations Jim
I knew it wouldn't be long before you found the temptation to own an XM too much
Looking forward to your blog updates with this one

Re: It's finally happened (or very nearly so...)
After finding shiply a bit of a failure for finding someone to bring the car here, I tried a site called uship.com.
That came up trumps with an offer of £165 which between here and Scotland is not bad at all.
Spoken to the firm and arrangements are now in hand.
She's on her way

Excellent Jim!
Only just seen the thread, I knew you would come over to the dark side eventually.
You had better hope the xantia behave as this will keep you busy im sure!
I cant wait to see the in the flesh and being an S2 is even better....

Re: It's finally happened (or very nearly so...)
They've been good this month Dave. I've just written the September Xantia Files for the Citroenian and could find nothing at all to write about my own cars; touch-wood, the last month of Xantia ownership has been entirely uneventful...davetherave wrote: You had better hope the xantia behave
This may of course be famous last words...
