one thing I didn't quite get. The concourse is oversubscribed every year, yet last year there were 2 Fiat Tempras and this year two metros and four fiesta, 2x Mk3 and 2x Mk2s which were even the same colour. I would have thought in such a small pool they would try and not have multiples in a single year

sadly its not just the cities, I could live with that. Its the 600 square mile greater London area including suburbia and semi rural areas . all other clean air zones are generally where people choose to go to shop, socialise and eat/drink. The ULEZ expansion takes the zone to one where 9 million people live and can't simply choose if they go in to it or not

Really been thinking today if I should go or not. I have been so upset about the ULEZ verdict today even though I expect it that the thought of spending the day looking at cars I can no longer aspire to have is too depressing.. But then I thought that's exactly what he wants, anyone who doesn't buy into his ideology to be punished. So barring any last minute disaster me and my lovely XM will be giving one last two fingered salute to Sadiq Khan. Come and say hello if you see us

I'd recommend joining the French Car Forum as there is some useful resources on there. Not sure if there is a sub site for the Xantia like there is on the XM but if there is join that too. Hopefully its been well looked after if its a Citroen enthusiast but if the fluid and filters are old and dirty it will never ride or steer well so plan to change fluid and clean filters. If its losing LHM and no obvious signs of puddle underneath the brake doseur valve seal is the usual culprit, the carpet underlay in drivers footwell will be a sticky mess if that is the case. As per my post on the for sale thread , plan to lubricate the rods and pivots on the levers for the height correctors if its been stood but never ever go underneath it without depressurising the system If the ride is still not good after changing the fluid it might need spheres. Not a difficult job. Listen to the clicking from the regulator/accumulator at the front of the engine during normal running. If it clicks all the time it will need a new accumulator sphere have a good look at the condition of the front strut mounts as when they let go its pretty spectacular
