Another Citroen XM in Australia

Post by Double Helical »

I've been hovering around this Board for some time, so it is high time I introduced myself. I own a 1993 XM 2.0i turbo auto, which is a series 1.5 car with series 1 body but hydractive 2. The car is in overall good condition, but has many minor problems both mechanical and electrical. However, it is still a joy to drive. The car was originally sold in the UK and imported to Australia 2nd hand. I also own a 1974 DS23ie auto, which is in good but not pristine condition, has only minor problems and is a joy to drive.
I live in Denmark, a small town on the south coast of WA, so most of my driving is open road ad high speed which both cars enjoy. The main drawback of living where I do is getting work done on the cars.
This board has already provided me with a lot of help and I thank all of those who have contributed the helpful information here.

Hi Ash

There seem to be a few French cars in Denmark (WA) - do you all meet up from time to time? I know I'm not the only French car owner in Armidale (NSW), but sadly we all just seem to do our own thing. Forums like this put us in touch with like-minded people all over the world!!

Hi Alec,
We do know one another, although there is a new Citroen Ami in town and we haven't caught up with the owner yet. I have discovered club-xm and it has already proved helpful.

cheers
