Worth every penny (or euro)!

It's a MK1 too.

Very special :P

Shame it's a sliver one.

Thats good value for money, especially for what is a new Xantia; in France.

Have a look on e-bay uk there is a XM V6 for sale with similar low miles, and they're looking 10 grand sterling!

Oh dear :oops: I should never have made that comment should I :lol: I blame the time of day!

Absolutely nothing wrong with sliver at all, it's just not a colour that really appeals to me. A Xantia actually looks good in silver whereas most cars just look boringly bland when in silver.

I like strong darker colours.

I'm with Jim, silver is bland, bland, bland. I wish my Xantia wasn't silver, and I've just went and bought a silver Xm, but beggars can't be choosers.

Exclusive rims look nice as well. Especially on other peoples cars.

MK1 Exclusive Alloys are the best wheels ever to grace a Xantia. They look very similar to Minilites and they really are lovely.

Only problem is, they're a devil to keep clean :twisted:
