1991 Citroen XM Si review from UK and Ireland
"Executive comfort relaxed drive economical"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Drive Shaft N/S (this was bent when I aquired the car)
Exhaust replaced at 67,000 miles.
New clutch fitted at 70,000 miles started to slip I think due to the previous owner towing a caravan.
Slight niggle electrical faults developed, all traced too bad earths. Replaced all earth spade connectors with crimped and soldered ring terminals bolted to body.
General comments?
Very Economical over the 47,000 miles I have done in this car it has returned an average of 30.66 M.P.G.
Very comfortable both in the seats and ride even on a 500 mile round trip.
Very quick if you want to push it.
Holds the road well, with sports suspension activated it corners as if it's on rails, but you can frighten yourself.
