Just like to introduce myself. I have 2 XMs, a series 1 24v 3L the Last rhd one built, and a series 2, 2.5 turbo diesel Manual Exclusive. My 24v has been damaged by a drunk driver in a stolen car when it smashed into the fence of a garage where the car was in for a broken clutch cable repair. It was of course written off by the insurance company so the payout is well short of the repair costs. So i'm looking for saloon Rear wings, rear doors,offside sill and offside rear wheel arch panels.

Welcome Paul, and I remember your request on the CCC Forum about the clutch cable repair - I posted it up on here too.

That's a crying shame about your 24v.

I might be able to help out with some Series 1 doors, though. I will know more on Saturday when I see the car however I am confident that I can lay my hands on two complete doors.

Cills will be a No no, and rear wings are part of the shell, I doubt anyone will have any..

Unless you were willing to cut them out of an exsiting car, in which I cannot reccomend Medway Citroen, MORE!! They sucessfully managed to cut a rear quarter glass out for me for one of my cars, after few of us have tried and broke them..

They are breaking a Grey (Light Grey I think) S1 Diesel, they could possibly sort you out.

Cills, I simply repair them up...

SO, Another 24v S1 car comes along! We assume the engine has had the Citroen Modification fitted, allowing it to run past 65k....

Ive got one of these 24v Machines too! Awesome things! Mines a H plate in Light Grey. There are a few others here who have one .. A well desired car and rarest of the XM models (So we think, but they keep popping up) :D

Very sorry to hear about the damage to your S1 24v Paul although it is good news that yet another one exists and will no doubt be repaired in due course. Just of interest where are you in the UK and what colour is the car? Regards, Matthew T.
