The CITROEN XM (1995-00) 5DR HATCHBACK 3.0 V6 EXCLUSIVE AUTO4 is a large, upmarket five-door hatchback from the end of Citroën’s distinctive XM era. In the UK it sits among uncommon executive cars rather than everyday family hatchbacks, offering generous cabin space and a more individual alternative to German saloons. Its 3.0-litre V6 and automatic gearbox make it a relaxed, smooth-feeling choice for longer journeys, while the XM’s striking, angular styling and comfort-focused character set it apart from rivals such as the BMW 5 Series and Mercedes-Benz E-Class. It may appeal to classic-car fans, collectors and drivers seeking a spacious, distinctive tourer; running costs and age-related upkeep make it less suitable as a low-cost first car or fuel-saving commuter. mycarcheck.com’s eight look-ups covered six VINs, so figures are indicative: average recorded mileage was 114,000, annual mileage 2,000, and 4.75 previous keepers. Its £100 average private-sale valuation is not a price guide.
