Red Deer encounter

Post by really? »

Thankfully not the BX. My Xantia met the stag early this morning and I am now trying to source parts for it. Namely a b onnet, n/s front wing and headlight, slam panel and possibly a bumper. Looked on the Xantia forum but all the posts seem relatively old.

Wondered if anybody on here may know of scrap yards not too far from Oxford who may hold stock. Have already tried all the local ones and ebay.

Any suggestions welcome

Alan Goodyear in Whittlesey Cambs has several xantias in his yard dont know if he is breaking any always worth a call i have his number should you need it.
Maybe be better off buying a cheapo non runner from ebay?
Think you will be hard pushed to find one in a breakers.
Early or late xantia?

Probably a bit far away but Edwards & Sons in Billericay, Essex, CM12 0TN (tel 01277 651486) are Citroen breakers and might be able to help.

D ied at the scene unfortunately and no it's not in the freezer. The Xantia on the other hand lives to joust another day.
