After an 18 month lay-off, my XM is back on the road
or at least it will be on Sunday
It passed it's MOT today with no advisories, just a number plate light bulb needed replacing, the one thing I'd forgotten to check
So the red shed (ZX) has gone to a new home across Wakefield and we're back in the XM driving seat again

Yes, welcome back Ken. We have just sold my wife's very nice 'P' reg ZX TD estate with only 95k on it to a friend of ours. I also have a BMW 5 series diesel but its not a patch on the XM.

Same as my Merc, which is generally bomb proof as well.
