Hello from Alan Partridge Land

Post by gary.drb »

Hi everybody.
I have been driving citroens for a long time now. The only break being when I had a Renault espace, so you could say that I like French motors. I've just picked up a P reg xantia td estate with 102,000 on the clock. I wouldn't have thought that the engine is properly run in yet. Nice condition and a pleasure to drive. Thought it was about time I joined up with the like minded.http://www.frenchcarforum.co.uk/forum/p ... =post&f=21#" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Hello Malcolm.
I thought the Alan Partridge bit might have given it away. I'm located about 4 miles west of Norwich, that part of the country that sticks out into the middle of the North Sea. We've got our own weather systems here!
