Following a thread on [XM-L]
Click on image to enlarge.
The car is first seen in the drive, then used as a hit and run and finally set alight on a beach.
Looks like the doors have been replaced on this shot. Bit of a waste really as there are plenty of other cars more deserving of barbecue treatment!
You can watch the whole sordid episode here -

What're they trying to do with those lights - look all menacing in a chase
or illuminate everyone's rear mudflaps and tail silenser?
Actually, I'm sure I've seen this car in similar pictures before.

Presumably the same person who put them back on to burn it out.....See all Wallander needs to do is find prints on the wheeltrims and they have their man...

There's a Swedish movie called "Fiendens Fiende" (The Enemy's Enemy) where the Citroën XM is used a lot by the main character and has a lot of screen time. There's no video clips that I can find though
