Xantia 1.9 TD

Post by spigven »

Hello all, apologies in advance as I've not posted in a long time and now it's not bx related.

Have for sale an R reg SX Desire in white (colour coded bumbers and mirrors, alloy wheels and grey faux suade interior). It's done 116K and I've owned it for 5 years and it's been specialist maintained in that time.
I have an extensive history file including work carried out by previous owner.

Its still quite a tidy car that starts and drives okay and is usable as is but will benefit from some fettling.

Good points:

MOT Feb 24 2009
6 spheres fitted 15/03/07 still got 2 years gtee
4 michelin energies fitted at 110k miles
front discs and pads and P bushes fitted at 20/03/08
car does not use any fluids
first time starter
working aircon

Bad points:

Clutch medium heavy
Ride height needs adjusting (front a little too high rear a little too low)
stalk switch on the blink (still works)
light but irritating noise from front end posibly drop link
drivers mirror damaged recently by scumbag who did a runner, doesnt look too bad - just a split in the cover and still works but will need replacement or repair.
finally the immobiliser was removed a couple of years ago after malfunctioning.

I was originally planning on keeping the car indefinately but have had a change of heart. Id prefer the car to go to someone who understands hydraulic Cits.

Car is located in Newcastle under Lyme and price is £350 which basically covers the last lot of work on the car.

Thanks

Mark
