Anyone know where I'd get a plastic undertray for a 93 td lx xantia? they must be like hens teeth over here.

From a Stealer but I understand they cost an arm and a leg!!!

Nearly all Xantias have lost them by now with no ill effects but I do worry about the lack of one on my 2.1TD as one of the turbo hoses runs right under the engine and is a tad vulnerable without it. No such worries on a 1.9TD though

Just a bit worried about anything catching the hyd pipes, especially he returns at the rubber "T" piece on the subframe, they got pulled out when the undertray parted on the motorway!!!

Probably a good reason NOT to replace the undertray with another!

I ran my Xantia TD for the 6+ years I owned it without the undertray with no ill effects. The one on my Xsara is mostly held on with cable ties at the moment and I think I'll probably ditch it altogether.

Mine still has it! Give me 5 mpg more than one without one! 8)

Ok i lied.. but it must serve some useful purpose, mine only has one bolt missing so its staying.
