I like the car but do believe less is more and certainly in this case the car would be better for being
simpler on the eye.

I'm not a big fan of the Cibie covers, the Pallas wheel trims or the gargoyle bonnet vent accessory
but thankfully they can be removed easily. The Cx certainly has a lot of period extras like the
rear screen louvre, window deflectors, armrest, map lights, cigar lighter extension and dash tray too.
I do love the very of their period seats mind!

And what do we see lurking in the background of this photo.... An Xm...





I suspect its so original because it may have spent a lot of time in a Parisian underground car park.

That car is superb looking. It belongs to a guy Mark Green, I bought some CX bits off him at the National Rally. He runs a Xantia V6 daily as well.

Does look nice doesn't it.

Shame it's got the add-on's...they really need taking off being such a rare, and early car.

Yep...we got these off of him a couple of years ago...

One man's meat is another's poison of course...

I'm not totally sure I could live with the dinks and dings "patina" and even wonder if the accessories
are in some way a deliberate distraction from them? For the effort of buying and fitting all that extra
tatt I'd have sourced a "metal magician" to sort the bootlid and back wing and purchase a new nearside
chrome end bumper which would fit in about 10 minutes!!

I agree Andrew...each to their own.

It's more like salesmans patina..
The whole right side of the car or front wing has been repainted so another go wouldn't hurt.
