Aotearoa/NZ Xantia

Unread post by dragen »

Howdy Frenchie-Folks!

Hydraulics and Xantia fan (got hooked with a 94 TZD BX) here in New Zealand/Aotearoa. Thought I'd pop up a pic of my current beastie, 'Francois the Frenchie', he's clocked somewhere North of 400,000km's and lives down the tail end of a gravel road, across some paddocks and close to the roaring forties of the Tasman Sea.

Nice to make y'all's acquaintance. Vive le France! :-)

Howdy Alasdair,

Hehe, yeah antipodean to your locale by the sounds. Now I'm getting hearty Xantia envy over that V6 Activa, and with a manual, delicious!

@Stickyfinger... I suspect that could be a costly exercise... :-D
