I feel a little sick. I've never even sat in an XM, I just know I have always wanted one

Is this posted from the inside of an XM with faulty suspension wallowing about?

Not yet. Still waiting. Impressively I have managed to almost wipe out the phone battery in a little over 6hrs too.

Well here is what my epic trip was for. A series one XM, registered '93. Its a 2.0 petrol turbo with 150bhp, and an auto box. It has only 79700 miles on the clock, and quite a bit of history. It was owned by an XM club member before being sold to a random punter a few months ago. He only purchased it as it was local, and he wanted something big and cheap, but decided it was to good to ruin.











It was very good on the way home, covering nearly 200 miles without missing a beat. This was on less than £50 of fuel, so approx 30mpg. The ride is lovely and smooth, however the front wheels need balancing as there is quite a lot of shaking at 65-70mph.

It has electric everything, including an electric arm rest. I never released was essential until today

Very chuffed with it currently. It needs a good clean inside and out, wheels balancing, and thats about it for now I think. Its taxed till Nov, as well as MOT'd till Nov.
