1997 Citroen XM Exclusive review from Bosnia and Herzegovina

Only thing that was wrong with the car when I bought it was that on highway car wouldn't go over 150km/h. That was resolved later.

Except usual maintenance (changed all spheres, brakes, fluids) I really didn't have many problems.

Some "ghostly" problems like, speedometer stops working one day and next day is fully functional (happened once so far) ;

Also, some weird knocking sound coming from front side, but dealer couldn't find any faults (of course they couldn't). It stopped later itself.

Since then I had no problems whatsoever.

Most problems came from dealer (s) - I had to change 3 different dealers to find out why my car will not go over 150 km/h on highway; - One of the sensors was disconnected from small pipe which is providing pressure for it.

Also, two out of 3 dealer shops was not sure how many spheres car has???

Scary, isn't it :)

The car is pretty roomy, lots of space inside and in the boot;

Handling is superb especially in the “sport” mode.

The 2.5 turbo engine with inter-cooler has enough power to give you pleasure driving it;

I kinda like it sounds on the long runs. It gives you confidence.

Fuel consumption is also great; I can do 6L/100km to 7/100 with air-condition running.

Leather interior is still in great shape although car has more than 150.000km on the clock.

Overall, I'm much satisfied with it…for now :)
