Looking very smart, Ray, in that Welsh weather.
And a Mehari! - at the other end of Citroen's comfort spectrum, although I'm probably doing it an injustice... ;)

Looks great Ray. I hope that wasn't the total turn out!

K-BAN was taken along to a local weekly classic car meet, where she received a very warm reception.

A new CV boot was fitted yesterday, and the gearbox oil topped up... only 700mls came out when the driveshaft was removed :? I'm hoping the top up of fresh oil will only add to the refinement.

Amazing! To think where this car was when Paul rescued it, it's chalk and cheese.

That does look very nice Ray, although one small anorak suggestion if I may, which is to replace the reg. plate with something more 'in period' With regards, Matthew T.

That is one gorgeous XM Ray, a real credit to you, and to Paul for rescuing it in the first place.
Looks like it could be in the brochures!

Surely, a K plate is period... :D.
