Gladly, My XM NOT Up For Grabs...

Selling off one (or bits :o) of your XM collection, or perhaps searching for those elusive headlight washer covers? This is the place to do it.

I'm not sure Jim yet, as depends on how things progress with it. There's about three months until the X Rally which it'll be done in time for.

Time will tell. :)

That'll go Paul. what you are asking for it is an absolute steal. Less than weigh-in I reckon...

Spirits have risen here EVER SO SLIGHTLY too... but could lift further.. Good to hear yours are good jim.

Did you get my pst about rotational use of the Xantias???

Yes I think it is, hence the price to try tempt. I know im loosing out money wise, but not getting it done is not making any money either....

Ill give it a week here, then may take more detailed photos and put it on the bay spares or repair. If that dont work, then painfully, suspension stuff off... and away. I may not even remove the engine and box... but there again.

Yes I did Paul and in fact I've been rotating the Xantias in a casual sort of way for some time but now it's time to do the rotations with a bit of forethought and planning...

The XM is off the road now anyway until all trace of salt has gone and to a greater or lesser extent so is the Activa...

V6 is the daily driver...

Best of luck moving on the estate. I'm sure it will ;)

Good news Jim, i laughed when i first read that you'd changed your mind on the xm as you are clearly smitten, i know that i am. There just arent so many earlier nose cars around anymore, especially in your colour and equipment combo...its very cool aNd something to cherish 8-) I can imagine that selling on one of these leaves you with that i wish i hadnt feeling a few weeks later when it sinks in

see you at the x rally if not sooner ;)

If this was the project car I saw, there is a lot of work to do, but it is sound. Fortunately, it does actually qualify for the X-rally.
