Excellent John. Will do!

The way I see it. The COTY logo is now very different. The car has been out of production for 23 years, and even then Citroen lost the faith with it. And if it was free with the car and not protected by anything, then I think as XM owners we should be allowed a little treat for keeping the faith! :lol:

Can you put me down for one please Russ. Any chance of designing the 'Citroen-Total' sticker. IIRC the XM had a black/silver design. Cheers Mark. :-)

That looks very impressive Russ and my only comment is that I think the white right-hand section should not have a black line around the edges. The earlier style coloured rear window Total sticker and engine bay stickers (white and yellow) are already available through the CCC via Tim Leech, who organised a similar operation, but maybe Russ could do it cheaper!! It seems to be a pretty impressive take up and getting towards 30 overall! Regards, Matthew T.

Thanks Matthew. I think it is getting very close to finished. With regards to the black outline, Paul's photo of the sticker does have a thin black line surrounding it. It depends how original you want it to look. But if no one is bothered, I can get rid of it or I can reduce it a little.
So Tim has done stickers too. I was thinking of maybe doing a set of all the XM engine bay and total stickers ect. Anyway that's for the future. I need to look into it and cost it all up first.

Will... thanks for the measurements. I am waiting on Paul to see what the original is. But I think I am quite close. I would not be at all surprised if it is 56mm tall. I have it at 60 at the mo.
Would you like any?
