Spotted this on autotrader, its not for sale but raising awareness for a charity drive event.

Looks to be a 2.1TD as it has the Activa style front and wheels. It is a 2.1TD going by its spec.

Looks rather good the way its been done in my opinion.

It's a 2.1 TD Desire 2, according to the auto trader car checker, but it's insured as a "Citroen Xantia" - on ASKMID. Nice spelling there.

Ah, its a Xantia is it! Rare breed that.

Well, i think they have chosen their choice of car well there, im sure it wont be much hassle!

At least they did not use creosote..

It would then have been a shed

I see the subtle rear spoiler will make a real difference to the aerodynamics!
I wonder, would painting a similar grey shape on the front of the bonnets on
older Citroen models make them all look like a newer C4/5?

Hmm, not too bad until I saw the rear spoiler living up to it's name
