How to ID a Xantia VSX if you cannot see a badge ?

[Stickyfinger]

It is an LX sadly.....on an L plate, green carpets as well .....I will not take the car as it is not "special"

save it anyway?

[Stickyfinger]

No space for a low value/interest car....

The owner is wanting it saved however.....AND ......The rear door shut areas are VERY GOOD....BUT it has lacquer flake on the boot

is it local to you then i'm guessing?

Theres one up near me that hadn't moved for years, then all of a sudden today it's swapped over to outside a house!

[CitroJim]

Maybe advertise it on here and see if anyone wants it Alastair. How much is he asking for it?

[Stickyfinger]

About £80-150 I think

In Wimborne Dorset

[CitroJim]

What is likely to be wrong with it and how long has it been derelict?

[chinkostu]

it's not a sinker but it is a VSX. for that price it need saving if not at least for parts

is that not a LX badge on the back ?

[CitroJim]

If it is a VSX it is definitely worth saving...

[chinkostu]

is that not a LX badge on the back ?

Definately has the VSX tartan interior, and the reg brings it up as above in servicebox when you look the vin up

[elma]

Badge on back means nothing, bootlid change.

That's a vsx it's the right interior and if the carpets are green well almost noone changes them and they were vsx.
