DSdriver gets XM estate

Hi All
some of you will know me from Autoshite but I thought I would introduce myself to the rest. Mrs_DSdriver and I run a DS saloon and a DS Safari (which is my daily driver) and we also have "The Peugeot of Last Resort" a W reg 36K mile 206 which was her mum's. Being fed up of winter driving with the pathetic heater in the Safari and unbeknownst to the Mrs because she was away in Switzerland I managed to snipe a 96 XM estate of 2 litre turbo flavour in a wonderful shade of dark green which makes it appear smaller than it actually is.
Mrs_DSdrivers first comment was about the reg no which has the letters N ONS which she stated was more than one French negative. She actually quite likes it despite her failure to put the pin code in correctly when she first tried it. Little things like that usually put her off for life. She wont drive the Safari in case she has to change over from LPG to petrol.
I have yet to put the XM next to the Safari to see how they compare size wise.
There will probably be a thread about it in due course, either here, on Autoshite or on the CCC forum.

Hi DsDriver,

Im probably the only Autoshite member on here! (Certainly the Facebook autoshite page anyway) I cant remember my autoshite name, but my facebook one is based on a Buisness name Idea I had which never came of.. (Xant-Roen Mtrs)

The XM will no doubt be physcially SMALLER then the DS.. but how lucky to have a couple of DS's (You DO mean the Orginal Godess one and not the modern pretenders?)

Unlike most the DS saloon doesn't do it for me - whereas the estate I love.

I have to say, I do like the Safari DS, though rarer, they do seem to have a lower price too...

Really? Not the one's I've seen. The safari is a lovely car.
