UPDATE 2023-11-17: Sold.
Two owners from new.
Very well maintained and reliable. 242K km. Drives very well and I'd confidently take it on any long trip.
Excellent condition inside and out. Class winner on numerous occasions at club show events.
QLD registered.
Located in (deleted), QLD.
$8990, negotiable.
For more detail and photos, read on….
* Mauritius Blue exterior
* dark grey velour interior
* leather steering wheel
* leather gear knob, subtle style to suit interior (replacement for original wood knob that came loose, available as part of sale)
* fitted carpet floor mats full set (genuine/dealer accessory)
* cruise control
* air conditioning
* modern audio head unit with bluetooth (original unit w. CD stacker available as part of sale)
* mudflaps full set (not currently fitted, available as part of sale)
* extra set of alloy wheels, 16x7 aftermarket, Xantia compatible, available for free with car if buyer desires (see photo)
* engine - strong, quiet, smooth, doesn’t use oil, mid-high ‘7s’ L/100km fuel consumption on highway
* timing belt & water pump - new
* alternator - new
* clutch - light, smooth
* transmission - quiet, smooth
* driveshaft carrier bearing - new
* fuel filter - new
* exhaust system - quiet, good condition
* heater matrix – nil leaks
* battery - good condition
* air conditioning - works well
* Activa system - all working well
* Hydractive II system - F & R electrovalves working well
* spheres - all recently checked, recharged, renewed as required (x4 new).
* hydraulic system return lines, junctions and seals - all renewed as required.
* brake valve boot - low km since renewed
* front strut boots & bump stops - low km since renewed
* rear suspension bump stops - both new
* steering rack boots L & R - both new
* steering rack end joint right side - new
* front suspension top mounts – low km since renewed and of later ‘fail-safe’ type
* wheel bearings – good condition and quiet
* brakes - good life left, smooth
* tyres – all same pattern, two only low km since new, other two roadworthy
As many readers will know, this was Citroen's ultimate experiment in comfortable, roadholding car suspension whose active anti-roll principle has been explored further by numerous other prestige marques since. Citroen's pioneering attempt is still pretty bloody magic. Just brilliant at moderate speeds, and simply amazing when the mood takes you to go.... a bit faster.
Over the past 16 years, I've had six different roadgoing Xantias, including three Activas and I can comfortably say that this car is one of, if not the best Xantia Activas still on the road.
Unfortunately for future me though, I now need to pass this example on to a new caretaker so I can focus on other priorities.
Inspections and test drives by appointment. Please PM me if interested. I'm happy to provide more detail to serious inquirers.
Thanks for looking.
