I would think Roberts must be for the French market cars...being in French!!!
So your one has to be right for UK cars. I would go with yours then.

That single block design with the "tennis bats" was used as a small symbol on the rear of March 1990 XM brochure.
The brochure is GB K3220 and the text is in English.
That suggests that various language versions of both the designs were used by Citroen as stickers and on publicity.

I would go for the clear backround version Paul posted. My French Version is very intrusive and sticks onto the car.

The design Robert has is included on several of the XM brochures I note and I attach a version of the UK sticker on another leaflet from my collection that hopefully will be helpful to Russ. The design of my leaflet is definitely the same, but I guess someone will still need to provide a size (at 48mm high I guess mine is smaller). Regards, Matthew T.

Thanks very much Matthew for that. The font of the Citroen text is slightly different than I thought.
So this is a sticker on a brochure?
