I'll keep an eye out in scrappy's for you if you want Jim, but TBH they are even rarer than Panda's in scrappies and that's saying something!

Here we go, found it.

They even shot up a mk1 Panda in this film

 

[JimMagill]

yeah, there's a mk1 4x4 that takes a couple of bullets at the beginning...

Xm's are rare, as I said there are 50 of them over here but there are only 12 panda's in Northern Ireland so Panda's are a more endangered species

Isn't that the truth, LOL

Citroen have produced some of the most technically advanced cars in the world. Rolls Royce/Bentley even use the same hydropneumatic suspension system, complete with Citroen chevrons printed on the parts. It's just a pity they couldn't make the XM good looking as well.

Just watched that clip. They may not produce the world's most attractive cars, but the French don't half make a good driving sequence, in fact, they probably make the best stunt drivers in the world.

The XM was a good choice for racing across some dirt tracks and tight city streets. It weighs as much as a new golf (1500kg) and has this fancy suspension that will raise its ride hight over rough round (or more practaclly thou floods, LOL) and then in normal mode it has 2 extra spears that try and keep the car level in hard corners

I personally think that the main chase scene in Ronin is the best on film, mainly because it's so action packed, with only one bit of CGI, and in real life it is all possible, no impossibilities

Sacre Bleu!! Mon Dieu!! Sacre Vert Caca!! Forgot how bonne that film was. Le French are tres bonnes stunt pilotes. Bet you didn't know I could speak Serbo-Croat did you?

Subway - 1985. French film starring Christopher Lambert (he of "Highlander" fame and speaking fluent French!) Good car chase scene at the beginning of the film, and the film itself is fantastic if a little weird! Produced by Luc Bessant so that explains a lot.

Coor, that pug 205 few

Best car Peugeot ever made that is! My friend just sold his J-reg 1.9 Diesel with no fewer than 340,000 on the clock and it was still running strong!

you cant compare an xm with a classic panda

xm is stuffed full of electrics (dodgy) whereas i have been in police cells with more electrics than a panda

Panda electronics's aren't the easiest to get your head around on a dark wet evening!

Especially if a previous owner has already tried to fix and earthing problem
