Yes I agree bobins something about the paint isn't consistent. If you look at the last frame of the video it also seems that the door frame is darker than the door so it may be that some of the paint has suffered more weather fade than other parts? Nice car though but with too many pedals for me!!

I think you'd be hard pressed to find a better way to spend £5.5k on a pre VED vehicle, including shipping, but sadly for me it has the wrong gearbox!!

Lovely colour Look for one with a C-Matic gearbox. That'll meet your needs Mick

Not everybody's favourite Citroen I know but if you are an XM fan on the lookout this does look to be a solid option!!

That's nice and in a very desirable colour too... It'll be a rare XM if it is indeed solid!

I was a member of the jet set when a teenager. I made a model jet with a small Jetex solid fuel engine. It took a lot of effort using balsa wood, tissue paper and dope. The first time I lit the engine it set the plane on fire so never flew, this was outside. I put the engine on some balsa wood with wheels and ran it in the lounge on the carpet. It glowed red hot but when so young I did not appreciate it could have set the house on fire but fortunately nothing untoward happened.

That's great Paul Enjoyed reading that!
