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
I best get my tickets
Im looking forward to seeing the BX stand
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
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!

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
