No. Not a 2.5 and at the moment there's about 4 black xm on the market.. three are 2.5s and ones a v6 12v (which is acceptable) and there's a black tct which would be easily sorted into something better. But I ain't got any cash..

Well I'm never going to win this thread but its interesting to see the high mileages they are going to and beyond.

My Xantia HDi is at 83,000 miles, some way to catch up! The Activa has 125K miles.

Post Number 100, and although some years ago now I took A Xantia through the 200,000 mile barrier, nothing new to contribute but dug this out for entertainment purposes.

You can't beat a bit of internet fact ( :) )
https://singletrackworld.com/forum/topi ... -citroens/
From "Lionheart"
"Our Xantia did 340,000 Miles, still going well and solid (galvanised) when sold. A Xantia in Sidmouth clocked over a million a couple of years ago. But I’m not sure if they make them the way they used to…"
for a dip into million mile cars for a diversion this lists
20 cars that have gone a million miles

..and the secret Volvo 740 GLE owner who passed the mark said..
"Other than changing the oil regularly and replacing filters, hoses, and belts, Dres simply drove the car like he expected it to last, and it did. He reached the impossible milestone with the original engine intact."

Not seen this thread before, but I'm fairly sure we own the lowest mileage diesel Xantia with a replacement engine... Less than 100k when it cam to us with a thrown rod and all sorts of other damage, still only just over 100k though it's engine I'm told has covered over 150k in a ZX prior to the Xantia.

Hi guys,
my Xantia 2,0 HDi has reached 355 000 km this year (2019). On the engine we/I replaced the timing belt + water pump twice and once the glow plugs. The rest incl. the injectors is still original (built 06/2000). Now, when the replacement C5 stands in front of the house, we drive it less frequently, but my wife still loves her.

Regards
Karel

At one time I thought it'd be a toss-up whether the Xantia would hit 200,000 before the C15 but don't think it's quite there yet (I rarely drive it) whereas as reported elsewhere the C15 clocked 200,000 on Skye the w/e before BH - & will be due for it's 204,000 mile oil & filter change when we get back to London this evening. (I missed 202,020 when it came up - something to do with exploring the wilds of Zummerzet at night when the A303 was closed - again! but, at this rate can 222,222 be so far away, at least in time?)
