Hello from Chickenland (Slovenia)

Post by JureA » Thu Oct 24, 2013 10:57 pm

Dear all,

I registered a while ago, but never posted any messages.

I'm Jure and I live in Chickenland (a.k.a. Slovenia).
My XM V6 Exclusive was made in 1997, and it's got over 500,000 km.
Still running just fine.

Some pictures are in this gallery:

I've got a few other Citroens, they are listed here:

I've posted a number of Citroen-related videos, accessible from here:

That's about it!
Jure

Welcome to the Forum Jure and that is certainly a very nice varied collection of cars you have. For a 1997 XM V6 24v nearly 320,000 miles is rather impressive, although presumably that is on a manual gearbox!! With regards, Matthew T.

Hi Jure, welcome to the forum. What a cool collection of Citroens you have. Like the CX prestige very much.

The mileage on your XM is quite impressive, good looking car too. As Matthew has said...it must only be a manual!!

Thanks guys!

Indeed, it's the manual gearbox.
I've had the car since December 2006, and had very little issues with it.
I don't drive it nearly as much as the previous owner - I've put around 50,000 miles on it in seven years.

Take care
Jure
