Hello everybody, am in two minds which Xantia to buy: Berline or Break. Which one has better riding comfort, which is easier to drive? What about parking and rear view? Before I had a Berline and liked its shape, but might need more space for kids that we expect to have within 2 to 3 years. What are your opinions?
Best regards, Karel
Xantia Berline or Break?

Estate (Break) definietly. If you take little tots bikes etc the roof line is lower at the back in the saloon. You can get a lot more in the estate. I had a BX saloon & after 2 years switched to the estate as it was a lot more flexible.
I'm actually likely to be looking for a Xantia estate for my wife soon.

Thanks folks for your opinions, I also find break more "usable", and although the saloon is nicer, I decided to buy myself a break. Nevertheless the prices of Xantias has rapidly grown since last winter (in 12/2002 I bought X2, 40 t. km, 1/2001 for 11500 EUR and now similar cars cost between 13000 and 14000 EUR). Looks like a big hunger for Xantias
