Found these on a German Citroen site. Bit silly, but they made me giggle.

As if the XM wasn't distinctive enough. Not to my taste but whatever floats your boat!

Wow I was never expecting FZ to make an appearance on a Citroen XM. Turns out though as cars go we're late to this party... Already been done, this one a little more stylishly (clearly the artwork, not the car).

However here's an appropriate quote from the man himself that could apply to (some) Citroen's "Without deviation from the norm, progress is not possible"- Frank Zappa
