Hi Matthew

I think its the XM experience rather than this particular XM. Maybe you could buy it back?

I'm so sorry to hear this Simon, and I thought after we sorted your suspension at CXM a new love was found :(

I can say it's a beautiful example and you'd have to travel far and wide to find another anywhere as good. Coming from Matthew it has the very best of provenance too.

I'm not currently feeling the love for mine at the moment after a long and 'interesting' chat with my MOT tester this morning regarding the subject of cats and LPG...

I wish you all the very best with the sale...

I am afraid the space has been filled with other cars Simon and one more possibly on the way!! It is a shame you have not hit it off with XMs and I hope she will find a good home elsewhere. Many thanks for your comments Jim and I am sure the issue with cats and LPG can be resolved! With regards, Matthew T.

Sorry to hear that Simon. I hope you sell it to a good home. It deserves it.

It might be Paul, I'll put a note about it in my own log to save Simon's log going off-topic...
