U tube XM early promo

Post by MTXM » Sun Oct 30, 2011 8:05 pm

Just been browsing on u tube and found this : [youtube]_Od2SdoCeVc[/youtube].
Bit boring at he beginning, but stick with it for some nice footage later. Quite revealing about the image and kind of purchaser Citroen were aiming for. I think the voice over might be Spanish or Portugese! Regards, Matthew T.
1989 V6 Exclusive (Poland car) - Now living in a local Motor Museum!
1990 V6sei auto (grey auto)
1990 V6sei manual (gold car)
