Nice one Ciaran! The XM seemed to be handling pretty well in the ice and snow and keeping up with the other assorted bunch. From the appearance of the car and pace being set I though it might be series one 24v? With regards, Matthew T.

It's not a 24v, the mirrors and rubbing strips are not painted and the wing badges are too short.
At about 52s and 1.58s you see the badges, but I can't make out what they say.

at the end it looks like it says Onyx although at the begining it looked like Turbo D, who knows, looks like someone was having good fun though!.

If that is the same car then it is a series one V6 12v!! Regards, Matthew T. PS. I have just spotted that the wheels are non standard and there is no wind deflector on the sunroof!

Fantastic pics

Just noticed there's a Xantia also, and noticed the Toyota from the XM video in the background.

Now that I'd like to see Peter!
I wish I knew of somewhere with enough open land to practice drifting like that
