To nbrewster,
Someone has certainly gone a long way down the tuning route but I'm not sure how !
My mark one Activa was still pulling HARD uphill when it ran out of speedometer (at 150mph measured) F**K knows how !
It did however only do 17mpg which a mate told me was worse than his Ferrari 308 Quatravalve!
He did however say that my Activa was quicker than his Ferrari !

This is the best place for info on Xantia.
Activa 1997, still only 68,000 miles.
Had rad fans replaced, loads of front bearings, even had a new gearbox under warranty at 15k.
Had rattly back end done twice and now it's back again and I need to do it myself this time. Looks like I can find out how in here somehow.

I think that some of the letters have fallen out of your post [}:)]
Sometimes we find them at the side of the A1

V reg 2.0L Turbo Activa with suspension probs as usual. At the moment cant seem to get it up!!!

I wonder if Xantia Activa Mk2 (after '98) should be more reliable than Xantia Activa Mk1. (Usually, as models get older, several improvements are made at factory level...)

1998 2.0L Turbo Activa 2. Great car, a wolf in sheeps clothing! Handles bends like a dream & surprises other drivers. Subtle because people are not aware of it's ability, but I would like more performance to match the excellent suspension

Born 2 die I hope you enjoy your activa .I love mine, but i still can't get more than 20 mpg out of her around town and 25 mpg on a long run!!

yup I am finding that but that said it could be to do with the fact i have just left my 9000i for a much newer faster etc car and I just cant no matter how hard I try cant stop playing with the turbo punch coming out of corners (makes me sound like a boy racer) this is one car that even though it will probably be high maintaince will be worth it as I cant stop driving her and she puts a smile on my face every time[:D]
