1992 Citroen XM 20.i review from UK and Ireland
"Despite the faults they are a bargain buy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The sunroof leaks in through the interior light and then switched the sunroof open. Also this damaged the remote central locking sensor and now does not work.
I also had to replace all of the spheres to regain the ride.
General comments?
I wanted to buy a Xantia, but an XM was half the price.I'm glad I did the ride quality is superb and has loads of space and is cheap to run. I get around 32 miles per gallon, so far I have not had any breakdowns. Only the XM has hydractive suspension which shows when you drive the car hard on country lanes it sticks like glue, the foot brake was a bit scary at first, but there is always something unusual about Citroen's it's part of their charm!
