Excellent Alasdair :D One thought, I'd like to see 'Xantia' and 'Activa' moulded into the surrounds rather than 'Citroen'...

XM owners will be positively trembling at the prospect of decent lights at last.. They'll likely put you forward for the New Years' Honours List...

Arise Sir Alasdair of the Light ;)
