Really Matthew is the person for this, but just how perfect are cars expected to be?

Not so Will, to quote Nigel in the Citroenian, Page 9:
Nigel wrote:The cars need only be in nice condition, not "mint / concourse" - we are, as ever, looking to represent the Club with vehicles in use rather than perfect examples.

Are you suggesting I should be putting a Mandarin XM up for this?


I could even do a Cobalt one if I gave it a wash...

Sure - drop Nigel an email and if there's space then it should be a go-er... :)

Go on Will.... It would be great to have a proper XM presence at the NEC.

Hmm.. Maybe.

I've got something else for you when I get round to writing it out. Been gassing and playing with spheres.

As you know I'll see you there Jim :D I best get my tickets

Im looking forward to seeing the BX stand 8-)

Was there not an XM on the stand a few years back, maybe when the C6 came out? I seem to remember it, I'll dig out my pics later!

Personally I'd like to see a Xantia on the stand! Jim, your very tidy Activa would be perfect 8-)

On that note, there has been a Xantia before, if not more than once. The last time being in 2008 when the converted S1 estate fitted with a 3.0 V6 engine, manial box and S2 front was there. Same year as our C15 was on the stand, don't remember having to disconnect the batter or run on low fuel then! :lol:

I'd better get mine too Chris!

I'd be really proud for her to be on the stand Chris and I agree, it's time for a Xantia to be in the limelight at a classic show.

Only trouble is, I've have to give her a good scrub-up. Not good at car cleaning :roll:
