What is sad for Citroën is that with the DS (and the CX I guess) they had a good place on that market. But as the XM had some reliability problems due to savings made by PSA on some electrical components, it did not had the career that it deserved (at the beginning, the sales of that model were very good, even in Germany) and now they do not have a better status as Peugeot/Renault.
