quick update, car picked up last night, few niggly bits but its an XM so that was expected, on the whole and touching lots of wood. it appears to be a very good base for a little tlc to make it really quite nice indeed, all in all pleased. Pics to follow or come to the national rally this weekend and have a real look :)

Ahh, good to see that she's gone somewhere she'll be looked after. Charlotte said she wanted an early one, and what a woman wants a woman usually gets.

Great to see you both (and the car!) at the National this weekend :D

She's a lovely looking car and certainly looks very well preserved. Definitely well worth looking after...

Well, its begun to behave like a citroen :)

Randomly wouldnt start when Charlotte had to go to an appointment yesterday. Trusty BX diesel to the rescue on this occasion and yep you guessed it, back to XM later, started first try as normal as if nothing had happened :)
