I've seen that colour on Saxos and C3s, but never on a Xantia... :shock:

I'm still undecided as to whether it suits that car or not.

It does, it looks gorgeous :P

EDIT: Interesting that. An LX with what looks like Exclusive Alloys.

As I said....I want that colour for mine. How much would a respray be??? :lol:

As for the alloys - their not. They are the bog standard hub caps. Same as I have on my SX.

Grand Pavois Blue

Yes, I too have seen it on Saxos, and to see it on an Xantia, certainly is different, when we normally see the darker colours on the Xantia.

I was looking at that last week, what a stunning colour for a Xantia 8)

Ive never seen one that colour before, it make a change from the normal Xantia colours, i wonder why it wasnt more popular? Maybe a limited colour run?

I must be strange, to me that's the ugliest Xantia I've ever seen. :shock:

I love colours like that, but i think its too bright and 'modern' to suit the Xantia shape.

There's a blue (looks the same shade) Xantia around these parts I've seen a few times and the colour does not work for some reason. At least, not in my opionion. It seems to flatten the curves.

Probably the main reason i like it is the fact its a rare colour.

Its the only one ive seen, so not sure how well it would look in the metal, looks good in the photos though 8)

I think for S2 Xantias i like the dark grey colour, like XantiaMan583s Activa.

There are a few nice colours really, but all quite dark.
