1990 Citroen XM V6 Sei review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Numerous electrical gremlins: erronious warning lights, blown bulbs, suspension has fits and refuses to go out of "sport" mode.
Suspension spheres need replacing after 4 or so years.
General build better than reputation.
General comments?
Probably the best front seats in any car in the world, performance good but gearbox not as smooth as some and reluctant to kick-down. Plenty of space, handling quite good (bit like a big GTi), ride excellent when it works.
Expensive if it goes wrong, spoilt by irritating faults, dealers usually hide when you drive up in one.
Never, ever, buy one unless its cheap.
