"V6 XMS" spotted leaving Horningsea, Cambridge

Was walking on the road back to Horningsea, Cambs. just now as V6 XMS came towards me in the dark. XM's look super nice with lights on I've always thought.

Is that the black 12v Exclusive which was at the Chevron rally whose owner (from Sussex) I have spoken with a few times? Regards, Matthew T.

Hi. Yes that's mine. Recently had the sills by mended by Just Rust in Fen Ditton so hopefully good for another year. Main problem this year is intermittent speedo which normally results in me travelling far too fast!
Cheers. Steve
