Xantia price in UK???
Hi, I am honestly confused about the prices mentioned here. Is it really possible to buy Xantia fot under 1k pounds in UK? They do not get below 2.5 - 3k EURO where I live. (This is rather theoretical question, really, as there is no use to buy a car with the steering wheel on the wrong side of the car for those living in the 99% of the world ))).
Hi there
Yes you can buy a Xantia for a few hundred pounds here and one in good condition too. I paid just over £1000 for my `96 estate 1.8 .with 70000 miles on the clock,and sometimes I think that was too much!
I think you are slightly out with your 99% because if you include Japan,Australia ,India much of Africa etc you will be down to maybe 75% or less.
Regards

paid close to 1800 for a 1998 r activa the gatage I bought it off did the belts 80,000 mile service mot tax and a hydraulic system flush etc mot and 6 months rent so not too bad it also came with a service history up to 58,000 miles but now alas afetr all my reading on fgorums carefull checking etc kme thinks the suspension needs attending to. oh did I mention I also got thrown in 1 years rac breakdown cover and 1 years rac 5* warrenty wich covers everthing except the turbo.
My four year old HDi Xantia cost me £3500 from a main dealer.
It had done 36000 miles.
I recently was looking to replace the ZX and one of the cars I considered was a 1.9TD Xantia with 98000 miles on a N plate (1995) which was up for £650
In the end I bought a lemon, sorry meant Diesel AX for £500 on a P plate (1996) with 60000 miles.
Big HP Citroens dont hold their value in the UK because of the popular notion that they frequently and expensivly break. Wonder where "most people" got that idea from?

I think the best deal I ever had was a 1999 Hdi 110bhp Xantia sx great car lots of power the newest car i've ever owned paid £2500 for it in august but unfortunately my partner was involved in a shunt befor Xmas and the car was a right off. However best bit no one hurt and the insurance paid out £3650 less £100 excess so net profit £1050 best profit ever had on a car and didn't even have any intention of getting rid of it
