I like E. Clean and effective. Reminiscent of the contemporary publicity.

I do agree, E is a clean design and would work very well. But it feels very 'series one'.
On reflection, the C and D fusion doesn't really work.
I still like D for me. It includes both S1 and S2, but looks clean and contemporary. I can easily fuse D and E......

You have a point. I like the way the two XM styles work together - almost in an upmarket luggage pattern/motif. It's really quite French.

That's a great point...and for me D looks individual enough not to be official citroen publicity material but still has a feel of it.
I like the text and layout of E but I think a D and E fusion might work very well. I will try it out and post it up later today.

Last one for now. This is D & E fused together.

Russ,
I really do like the simplicity and impact of E, but still like the stylish car logos of the RHS of C !
How about replacing the LHS of C with E ?
Take a break; have a coffee; who'd work for a Committee?!

As far as committees go this seems to work. I agree. Let's try that

It sometimes works...

Hi Russ
Thanks for that.
Not quite what I suggested but very close.
On the final one just the black centre section with the word FORUM removed.
Produce two versions (Mk1 & Mk2) by changing the font of the XM script.
Use the Citroen font for XM as used on the rear of the cars and on the owners handbooks.
