There are only MK 1 and MK 2 Xantias. MK 1 = 1993-1997 and MK 2 = 1998-2001. Here is much info about those: http://www.citroenet.org.uk/passenger-c ... index.html

Sure, there's a MINOR facelift on the first series one where the grille,
airbag and FDV/hydraulic pump were altered. That would hardly count
as the more popularly identified facelift car which ended the series with
a noticeable difference in the frontal appearance.

Yes they're all facelifted though some changes are more significant than
others but even by Citroens own parts site, there's only a Xantia and
then a Xantia 2 from the 1997 change over date.

If you go asking for parts for a series2 you'll find all you're going
to do is confuse a lot of people!! :D

Although as Saipa in Iran produce the Xantia under license from Citroen, the one they produce, could be called the MK3, if there are any detail differences which they put on it for their market either now, or in the future while they have the license to produce it.
