The aesthetics of Bertone is timeless and imagine that this design was inspired from Lamborghini Athon also from his creativity. Thank you Nuccio Bertone for your touch, automotive industry wouldn’t be the same without your touch.
Give posthumous thanks to Nuccio Bertone and Bertone design most of french Citroen, Peugeot and Renault designs came from his hand. As example XM was his design and was originally intended for Lamborghini Athon designed in 1980.
It is only when you own an XM yourself, that you can fully comprehend what a superb car this is. To this day, it's still the best looking car for me, combine this with the interior and the way it feels to drive this space ship and you get the best car ever built. XM pour toujours!
I hate to be this guy, but is it reliable enough? I want to buy a sporty retro citroen with hydropneumatic suspension and I think the XM would be perfect
@@milesromanus7041 You don't really buy a Citroen for reliability. You buy it for the bonkers, for the nonsense and for your own enjoyment. Most people don't ever understand it. Myself, I don't understand it either, but I love it.

When i was born my family had a 1990 Xm 2.0 petrol. We had it for about 4 years and after that we sold it. The guy who had bought it from us later told us that he had left the car at a parking lot and it was burned by a group of teenagers and then sent to the scrapyard. My dad later told me that it was the best car he had ever had. Update: my dad bought a 1995 phase 2 Xm 2.0 petrol yesterday and it’s a truly magnificent car Update 2: I’ve had my license for about 2 years and I bought an XM 3.0 24v Exclusive from 1997 after I got my license and I still have it. I must say that even after all these years I feel like the XM just keeps on getting better and better.
Superb video, I own a white XM Pallas V6 24V produced in 1993. So it's exactly the XM version in the video. The present on the rear bench shifts positions from driver's side to the other side and back again, as seen at the end of the video. But the fine leather is a bit slippery and the XM does take some sharp turns, so this might be expected.😅
@@gangbangmidnight841 it depends if the hydropneumatic spheres are in a good condition. If so you can drive through speed bumps at 50km/h without noticing. If not, you are doomed 😱
@@gangbangmidnight841 Let me explain it that way: I worked for the german railway for many years. Many backroads near railroad stations are made of cobble stone. With my XM it never bothered me. Then my employer gave me a Ford Focus as company car. From that moment it was hell to drive those backroads! Short version: Bumpy roads, speed bumps? In an XM, where have they gone?
Le choix de la musique, la vivacité de cette pub qui vantent les perfs d'une auto pas faite pour ça, mais qui démontre cette liberté de mouvement et d'expression...Hummmm, comme ça sent super bon les 80°s_90°s...Ah là là, comme quoi, c'était vraiment mieux avant !
La xm v6 24 valves pas faite pour les performances c'est drôle! A l'époque j'ai vu une Saab 9000 turbo s'éloigner dans les rétros de la xm v6 24 dans laquelle j'étais installé grâce au pilotage mais aussi grâce au moteur et aux suspensions.
@@pierremaillet2099 je ne sais pas quelle version de 9000 Turbo était la SAAB (pas une turbo HP de 225 lol)... la xm 24s n'est pas un foudre de guerre (eu pendant 4 ans avec la V6 Turbo du collègue qui me laissait sur le careau...)...
The XM and C6 are those remarkable cars that stay on your mind if you ever driven one. And this come from a LR addict and collector. Dang my supercharger only give me chills on a straight line but those can put a smile any day making curves wether is in the death coast or as far as Stelvio pass.

Unfortunately Citroen lost the charisma, originality and beauty of other times, when the brand was innovative and unique, DS, SM, CX, GS, XM, Xantia, now Citroen is just another car maker, nothing special, nothing fantastic, just ordinary cars.
Had 2 years ago an XM phase 2 3.0V6 black with black leather automatic 1996 and like an asshole I sold it because missing time to take care of it…. Everyday since then i regret….

You’d have to be a nutcase to buy any luxury car from new. At least with a Citroen you got a slice of original engineering thinking rather than an accountants penny pinching input. Unfortunately for the XM Peugeot had allowed too much bean counting to intrude and as a result it wasn’t as “pure” as the preceding CX and DS/ID in Citroen’s ideology of car design.

Exactly, that's why I have one XM still in my garage. "Vive la France!" 💗

The car driving with the lava hits hard
The Last Emperor of Citroen!
I have a dream: One day I will have an XM or DS, for now I only have a Citroen Xantia, which i really like!
Question! How does driving feel when going off road or over bumpy roads and speed bumps?

Disse tudo!
I have a 1993 Xm prestige automatic. 2.0L petrol turbo.
i had owned the v6.3.0 Ambiance(1989) and v6-24 exclusive(1992)
Nicely done. Entertaining video.
La plus belle voiture que j'ai
Excelente video!!
One of the best 👌😊
Era uno spot televisivo? Così lungo?
Arrepio só de ver esse comercial
Это Шедевр!!!!!
poluję na ten samochód...
Voyage Voyage should be the official song for XM! Suits the best!
It's sad to realize that the time of good cars as vanish on time
Ah l'Islande !
R.N.1 (la seule...) qui fait le tour de l'île : glacier, volcans, soleil de minuit, etc.
J'adore la xm
This vid should be in HD.
Most stylish car ever desined, i.m.o.
Very true :)
Surely one of the best
Je regrette vraiment cette époque où Citroën sortait des bangers genre XM, Xantia, Xsara et que surtout, elles avaient toutes leur version Sport.
Représente la France number One
I remember the commercial when music start to plays
Nejkrásnější Citroën všech dob.
La music top comme la nana
