Paul, I'm going to have to have a very serious talk with you about your belief that all you post is rubbish. Well, that's just rubbish

You don't. OK? I want to hear no further talk of this. Got it?
If that accolade should be applied to anyone it should be me. Most of my posts drag a thread off topic and often is a totally irrelevant anecdote that adds nothing to the subject at all...
In fact I'm amazed I’ve not been banned...
Happy New Year everybody

Now if I’d have not gone and got an XM when I did Matthew you'd have been in the top 10.
Sorry

I think for the range of experience with the most types of vehicles and engines Paul citroenxm is up there with the best of them, it was largely him that persuaded me to go down the Hdi route and I haven't regretted it.

I speak down to me for a reason.. ive seen too many people who do know little or nothing but have a big issue of believing themselves correct and nothing else matters.. i don't want and won't ever want to be someone who's says i know it all or a lot and i know it.. and get big headed .. there's nothing worse then a big head and one that knows nothing ..
so its my quiet way of keeping me on the ground and held down..
thankyou for your kind comments it is nice to know when your appreciated.. not really had a good Christmas for a reason or two chaps..
lets hope 2013 is a bit better to me ..

I know exactly where you're coming from Paul and I applaud you for that but don't keep doing yourself down so!
I try to post only on topics I know something about and try to keep quiet on subjects on which I know nothing. Hence why on the FCF I never respond to C5 questions unless it's something they have in common with something I do know about... My posting frequency is going down on the FCF as a result...
And Paul, I value your quality checking my posts and telling me if I've got something wrong

Which I might add I frequently do.
Sorry you've not had a good Christmas Paul and here's very much to 2013 being a very great deal better and that you very soon have an XM on the road
