Advert prices...never SOLD prices, I do no believe they sell for those prices, not even close

Agreed, and if you make a "lowball" offer on one & they tell you "find another", just tell them "find another buyer who'll offer more"...

I think they are on the way to becoming very rare cars, but also a very niche market. I've not been on howmanyleft for a while, it was broken last time I looked but I'd not be surprised if Black is the only remaining D-auto & certainly if there were another for sale I think I'd be the only potential buyer!

Xantias are getting rare, in all markets. The Activa V6 will always have a big premium over other variants, but are a bargain compared to a DS or SM in similar condition. 15 years ago a good Activa V6 could be found in France for about €2000. I looked at a few but bought my XM instead.

My Xantia V6 (not Activa) will probably be for sale next summer, somewhere between those price extremes.
