Drove it home about 14 miles, What a difference in the dumper i have been driving. All seems ok, maybe a tad bouncy on the front end, Spheres have 2006 mark on them so probably need changing.
How many spheres are there on a 2000 HDI sx Xantia ?
It's the same colour as my old one. Took it home and got the other half to come for a ride.. Within 1 mile she said "Thats much better " Half the price of the dumper and 20x better and the seat is very comfortable..
I have done something right for a change..Yippee.
I have no pictures yet but as soon as i do i will post them.
Know i have learned a lesson from this, Stick with a Citroen..
Glad to be back, lets hope she will be as reliable as my old one although i wont be using it until i have sold the dumper..
A few photo's of the new Xantia. It has a towbar whcich pleases me as now i can look around for a small trailer for holidays.
Just can't wait to use the Xantia when ive sold the other car or the end of the month then she will be on the road.

Sold the Vectra today so the Xantia is now on the road.
Do you think from the photos that the front end is too high ?
I might be wrong, but after driving the Vectra and now in the smoothness of the Xantia it seems a bit bouncy to me. Perhaps it's just me, Here i go again, paranoia of the Citroen kind..lol
Anyway, i am glad she is on the road at last, need to do a couple of small things to the car but other than that looking forward to enjoying it.
If i need to i will take a couple of more photos tomorrow in the light and see what everyone thinks about the height.
More updates will soon be posted now i am back in the land of Citroen.
Also i shall have to get around to paying some subs towards the forum too. Is it £6 for the year or has it gone up ?
