I've never tried it but i have been told that Lexia will not run on vista, Probably the main reason why im not changing to vista.

In my demented mind, I think of XP as a Xantia, and Vista as a C5 .

An evolution, but not necessarily an improvement... :lol: :lol:

Hmm I'm unconvinced but then I run XP in classic mode.

I think Citroen did a great job on the hydraulics on the C5, far less piping, easier to get at spheres (unlike the rear accumulator on the XM), the car's ready to go straight away, the ride height is adjustable electronically and the ride in mine is nearly as good as my XM. Yep I'm a fan of the C5.

I don't understand why so many Citroenians are afraid of the C5 or the HDi engine, if you want simplicity a Citroen isn't the best bet and if it's an old Citroen be prepared to learn and get your hands dirty.

Besides, mechanical things and pipes are a heck of a lot simpler than French electrics ;)

Prior to buying my Lexia 2 I spoke to the manufacturers Actia who stated that Lexia 3 will only run on XP and not Vista.
