I saw one!

Unread post by MTND »

I saw a white P reg Xantia this evening in St Ives, looked clean and in good condition! Becoming a rare sight in good condition and in white like mine!!
It was early and series one but with a high level stop light and probably a SX or LX.

Was it you? :P 8-) :-D

Ditto, I see quite a few in the Dorset/Devon/Cornwall area but haven't seen an XM on the road for a year or more.

That's 'sedans' not estates. To my certain knowledge, 'N' Reg (95 model year) estates have the high-level brake light.
2012 Subaru Forester - capable but no magic carpet
2011 Grand C4 Picasso VTR+ 1.6HDi - not missed!
1995 Xantia Estate SX 1.9TD in Vert Vega "The Green Lady" - sadly missed
1998 Xantia 2.1 VXD Estate in Mauritius Blue - R.I.P. (terminal tin-worm)

Yes my N-plate estate had one. I remember changing the bulb.

Quite a few Xantia's floating around the Lancaster/Morecambe area. And the occasional BX. :)

CORRECT Guy. I ommitted that part. The Estate from the Off had the high level already designed into the car..

Thank you.. :-D :) :)
