Has anybody got any opinions on the above question? Which is the best in every day use, and what are the strengths and weaknesses of each model?
I have a Xantia Hdi 110 and a 2.5 XM, but I can't really afford to keep both on the road at the same time. I have never driven an XM (my one is a project, but should be MOT'd in the near future) However I have done quite a few miles in my Xantia and absolutely love it, comfortable, frugal and reliable, everything I could want in a car! I have always had an XM shaped itch though... Should I just stick with the Xant, or take the plunge?
WHICH IS BEST? Xantia HDi V's XM 2.5 diesel.

MOT the XM. Use it for a month, sell it. That'll satisfy the itch.

Damn, I was hoping you'd say the XM was nicer!
I'm very impressed with the Xantia though. One of motorings best kept secrets....
OK, what about this then, XM/Xantia/C5.....Which one is the bestest?

XM best...
So work that out.... HDi best engine after the 2.1 12v engine, then XM best of the three cars...
