The Traction was certainly deserving of the award. Magnificently restored.Citroenmad wrote:Im glad I got to attend today, even if it was only for the last hour or so of the day. I did seem to just miss a few people who I wanted to see, but there is always next time. Very good to see you again Jim and others, ill catch up again at another event.
The wind was really strong, no wonder my C5s MPG was into V6 figures on the way down Mind there might have been another contributing factor to that too.
Ill upload some of my pictures shortly, though I didnt take many, mostly of yesterday.
Jim, Xantias were very thin on the ground yesterday too, I spotted just one ... mine

My dad was surprised to recieve the best in show award for the traction, so that was nice, thanks to all who voted for it. Indeed there was some very stiff competition.

Yes.. Originally Paul (CitroenXM) was going to go in his Series 1 V6 Xantia following its restoration. His is an exact twin of my old V6 and we intended to present them as a matched pair.pug_owner2002 wrote: Gona put us out of our misery Jim?
Sadly, the cost of the final bits to get it on the road, especially insurance, scuppered plans.
I took my new V6 simply because old V6 is due her MOT tomorrow and she's all ready and prepared for it. I have a funny old habit of getting a car ready for an MOT a week or so early and then not using it until after the test.

Well done!
I'm happy to say Rothegar did too I saw him safely depart the M1 at Junction 29 on his way home....

Thanks Steve It was looking rather filthy! It is as good as it ever has been now. Its nice that it doesnt have a lot of the usual old car hold backs of being noisey, wondering and slow on the road either, you can actually use it. Im sure we will have it at one or two more events this year.myglaren wrote: The Traction was certainly deserving of the award. Magnificently restored.

Had a great couple of days and a lovely drive home in the XM.
The traction was absolutely stunning and 100% deserved the best car of the show award.
It was great to finally be able to out faces to names.
Will upload some of my pictures tomorrow.

I did a Lexia job on an XM for Becky off the XM List however it wasn't for a fault. Her Lexia wouldn't talk to it so we tried mine to see if it worked.citroenxm wrote:If Im correct, I do not seem to recall any XM's having bonnets up for Lexias.. more for engine show...
