That's a real shame Russ but I know of another sinker that may be on the market soon and from what I'm heard on the grapevine (LHM pipe?) it is in lovely nick and it's had a lot done to it just recently... As soon as I know more I'll let you know...
The only thing that might put you off is that it's a 1.9D - not a Turbo. Hellishly frugal and bombproof but no ball of fire.

Looks nice, I still prefer the VSX though...
Well well well Robert...
Jim thanks for the tip..might be interested. I also know of a sinker that is available too.
If I do go for one, it will have to be next year. The Gold one in Scotland was lovely, but it's mot did run out almost exactly a week after the XM's. So maybe missed a bullet there!
Got to admit, it would be great taking an XM and Xantia to CXM next year.

Can't be lucky always I guess. Besides 2 cars means more than twice the trouble of upkeep. What is CXM?

I would concur and being a veteran of many, possibly the best I've ever attended. Must have been good this year as I took three days to recover from it
Jaap, very much worth coming over from Ireland for.

yes that 3 days of summer was lovely.
The CXM rally is a good meet, its nice to see some other citroens and talk to people about their trials and exploits with the cars over the year, have a go in some other peoples cars and return the favour, its a good weekend out, of course next year i will be banned though

Depending on the company you keep there can be some long nights
Should change that really, its actualy 190hp but no, you would be banned for turning up in a mazda.....................
