Hi all, the best " handbrake " I ever had on any car was operated by your left foot !!! 1992 Citroen XM 2.0 litre automatic estate - That car was SUPERB ! One of the best cars I have ever owned - the turning circle was amazing - far better than anything else, no shunting about forward and backwards as with other cars - the boot was huge, only the Mazda 929 estate was larger but not as tall due to the citroen`s amazing suspension !! which was out of this world !! - my accord is great and I love it but the XM was better in the areas I have listed above - can I just add, how someone with the manual gear change coped with that footbrake I have no idea, with the auto box on a hill start - one foot on the foot brake and one on the accelerator pedal - then push the release button on the dash - with the manual - no idea as you would need Three legs/feet so as not to roll backwards ?

Interesting reading as usual Trevor
