YBL - Citroen fleet car - there are lots of KV and BL numbers about - most of these are Citroen company cars.

Bonkers!

This XM has visited every capital city in the UK since I got it, apart from the closest one (Cardiff). 3,000 faultless miles and a service is now due! I Guess that'll be next Saturday taken care of ...
