Even hoovered it and ran a rag over the interior.

I do really like it. I've used it more than the Berlingo this week, which probably isn't really financially sane, but so what?
I'm not sure Davie. It seems to be doing 30-32mpg at the moment, driven in a relaxed, but not slow manner. That's not hugely different to my mates 1.6 Focus which gets about 37mpg. I could imagine it could be awkward for you to maintain, though good ones seem to just go on and on and on - the grey VSX I (and Jim, and Citroenmad, and now Dunk) has is on well over 200k and going strong.daviemck2006 wrote:It's a nice motor, and, for me in the best colour. I would find it great, but in your words not financially sane. And with my health probably too much maintenance required.
No lacquer peel at all on this one, it's not been resprayed. There's a bit of a rust bubble on one rear wing, but that's about all. It came up better than I expected after I cleaned itFake Concern wrote:Looks lovely, I don't usually like that sort of metallic red, but it really suits the Xantia. Almost every one I've seen in that colour has had peeling lacquer, but can't see it on yours, is it resprayed?
It all near enough works, and I'm not touching a thing once the airbag light is sorted. I might change the oil and filter now and again, and perhaps the coolant at some point but most of what needs to be done has been over the years.lexi wrote: I hope you ain't gonna constantly fiddle with it Mike?
