Why oh why would anyone want to do that to a Xantia?

Yep, grim doesn't begin to describe this - the rear is worse!
I posted about this once before - shame they're apparently
still in business.

Eurgh de-badged and everything...Glad I haven't seen one of these in real life!
Apart from maybe Activas and v6's - Xantiae aren't really what you'd call "sporty" cars.
But then again most things you see with that sort of tat attached isn't either...

Like I said, the rear gets worse;

It's just silly.

I hate to say that I've seen worse...but not on such a good car.
At least you can be sure that it's not sitting on chopped springs

Its a snow plough, it sucks the snow up and blows it out the back!

Easy to get the impression they have one set of basic patterns and it's only slightly tweaked for different makes.

The original car's bumpers are probably still fitted underneath the
added on snowplough...

Wow his new foglights are going to be massive, there are obviously no speedbumps in his road unless he has a bumpy ride every time he encounters them, I would love to see his reaction when he has to lower the suspension one day rrrriiiiippppppp

All to force more ram air into that pulsing 90hp TD powerhouse
and give the chassis dynamic ground effects?

Even more revolting than body kits I saw being advertised ready fitted on imported s/h Subaru Forester's from Japan, and I didn't think that was possible!
