X-Rally 2017
Hi all,
The first main rally of 2017 will be the X-Rally - once again being held at Burghley House, http://www.burghley.co.uk , on Sunday the 23rd April this time. Booking slots were a little tight for this and even tighter for an alternative venue option we had in mind... so for better or for worse it clashes with Drive Your Classic Day. Sort of fits really!
If you are on FB join the Citroen Car Club (UK) group page and check out the events on there. Here's a short cut:

Re: X-Rally 2017
I'll be there and this time I'll be in the Aubergine since she missed every show of 2016 due to being off the road/waiting for work to be done.

Re: X-Rally 2017
As things stand I'll probably be there in the AX GT, if I go. It's a very long way from my front door!
But then they all are....

Re: X-Rally 2017
Hoping to be there, if so will be the GT's second X-Rally appearance and will mark her first full year on the road since the early naughties! Will also be a good run and test after all the work that will be done soon.
Will there be many challenge-goers going?
