Delft Blue body colour! Do you know the French couleur name, or alternatively the colour code?

Jan,the 607 shares suspension of 605,so I upgraded to Brembo front brakes and the very elegant 17 inch wheels,same overall diameter so no speedo error,checked with Gps.

Re: Last of the great 6s
Thank you for sharing these details. Must be a great car to drive. In the 1960s and early 70s I drove a 203 and 403 respectively and then a 504 for a short time, a great change up. All really fun cars to drive. But Citroen cars took over, not after a number of Japanese cars though.Salman wrote:Jan,the 607 shares suspension of 605,so I upgraded to Brembo front brakes and the very elegant 17 inch wheels,same overall diameter so no speedo error,checked with Gps.

Hi it was me paul who noticed the wheels/605 .. the 607 still used the xm chassis press for the floor pan and front subframe...Salman wrote:Jan,the 607 shares suspension of 605,so I upgraded to Brembo front brakes and the very elegant 17 inch wheels,same overall diameter so no speedo error,checked with Gps.

Re: Last of the great 6s
So i take it the 605/607 pug and XM also share the same hub carrier assembly?
So you could, if you wanted to of course, fit 4 pot Brembo's to an xm and see what the 4 pot calliper grabs like with a full power brake system rather than servo assisted setup.................

Re: Last of the great 6s
Yes because they use the same 5 bolt wheels and the 605 used the same hubs .. so .. yes..
607 seats use identical floor mounts as the xm too.. right up to 2006 i think was 607 final years.. the 607 seats went one further and on top spec got electric headrest movement! !
