Thanks for the warning Dean

Although I have always sort of hankered over a Xantia V6, although a C6 is more on my horizon now (if I can persuade the Mrs!) and keep the XM too.

yes winning the lady round is always an issue, The C6 is a lovely car, i certainly didnt have anything bad to say when i got to test one out at cxm this year.

Yep the XM is "her" car hence she has plenty of say the the replacement (or what she will be driving instead). It's almost pot luck what she likes! From a Smart roadster coupe to something as big as a C6. I'll just have to try to persuade her harder - maybe a test drive will win her over!

if she is happy with the xm the C6 is the next step up although the back end feels less planted than the xm's, very boat like and underdamped but otherwise well worth a shot.

I sent him a PM earlier, it didn't tell me I couldn't do that, but of course he may not have got it, wouldn't let me send an email though.

I just copied this off the board "It is currently Sat Jan 01, 2000 11:19 am" wonder if that's got anything to do with it.

tell her to buy the smart - once driven, she will want one.

And it's French too ...

Hi

Just waiting for the depths of winter to go for another look at Smart roadster coupe's and see what the prices look like.

They do hold their value damn well. BTW like the Yellow one you have. Has it been good for you?
