1991 Citroen XM review from Australia and New Zealand
"Great car for the brave individualist"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
A/C not working when bought - leaking hose.
Front suspension strut mounts worn.
Various annoying minor electrical faults (blown interior bulbs, wrong warning messages) - nothing serious.
General comments?
Vastly underappreciated car which is very comfortable and capable. Body, interior and engine appear bullet-proof and should last a long time. Requires steady and knowledgable maintenance to remain trouble free.
