Colour Query: Xantia Door Handles

Post by vulgalour »

I'm curious, did Xantia door handles come in any colour other than black? I'd like a set of white ones on my estate, so far I'm thinking Xantias only ever had black handles and I'll have to get mine painted.

Would've asked in the thread I dedicated to the car, but thought it might get missed.

I think only the black (grey?) color handles were manufactured for all the S1 & S2 Xantias

Yes, I've never seen them in any other colour except black even on top-range models...

I guess I'll have to get a spare set to dismantle and repaint then. I'm hoping it tidies up the flanks a bit, though I would prefer to remove the handles completely and just have the doors on a solenoid, just not really practical for an everyday car.
