I Dont want sporty ride
Citroens were made for a SMOOTH SOFT ride! NOT a sports car ride!
Jim, You wait till you see my TD SX, which incidentally, passed MOT with 4 advisories today at 220k...

Never, ever worry about going off-topic in this forum It is encouraged as some very interesting discussions result from it.brmartyn wrote:(sorry to be slightly off the subject in hand!!!)
And banter (such as what is going on between Paul and I over Hydractive) is perfectly normal on here. This is a very, very friendly forum... Thought I'd better explain that before you wondered what was going on. As I say, all very normal on here...

Hi brmartyn, welcome to the forum
I had wondered what had happened to stevetheskaterboy, as last i heard he was in Finland, seems the car had a good trip there and back then. It did look very smart in the pictures he posted of it.
Enjoy your Xantia ownership

RE: ACtiva: Yea they are the ones that are rock solid on corners arent they! And dont lean

Couldn't afford the tyres they have an appitite for

CitroJim I look forward to meeting with you at some point and thank you for your posts so far. On looking on Google maps I see your just North of Milton Keynes so not too far to travel at all.

I drive a Series one, 1994 L reg TD SX, but I do actually prefer the Series 2 car from 1998 onwards..
Id have to have a HDi 110bhp model to replace this ole TD if ever she decides shes had enough...
But at 220k I cant see that happening just yet!
