And I should say Oi! Stinkwheel! Naaaaaaoooooo! I admire your love of the quirky Citroens but you've got a GSA and several Dyanes to sort aaaaaoooouut! ;D
For anyone else, get it bought! Silly performance for the money. Get the VTEC effect without the Honda price tag. Terrify BMW owners, taunt 205 owners with all of your valves.

I miss my old BX. Great work horses and comfortable motorway cruisers.
If I had the spare cash i would be sorely tempted

Oh My Goodness.
Having got Christmas out of the way, just came in looking for something interesting to replace my doomed Audi, and this presents itself... (I had a TZD that I unexpectedly grew to love)
Excellent advert, except I couldn't see what MOT/tax there might be? (sorry if I am being dim)
Could the towbar be left on by negotiation on price?
Bit of a daft question, but anybody know what are these like on fuel, particularly on a steady run?
Thanks, Phil

Right, on fuel as good as any other 2 litre 16v with 170bhp Actually not too bad, cruise round at sensible revs and speed these will do you 40mpg nicely. As a motorway cruiser these are not the choice of car imafraid, 5th gear is quite revvy, they do just under 4000 rpm at 80. If you have had other BX's then you know sort of what you are getting but the 16v has this sting in the tail, its called 5500rpm, hit that and through till about 7000 its goes warp drive And yes mr Dollywobbler, i don't need and cant afford. |

As I said, bit of a daft question  but that is exactly the sort of info I was after, thanks. I drive to/from work all over country late night/early hours, so a 80mph 'mechanical sympathy' speed limiter might not be such a bad thing for my driving licence! Just wiating on tax/test info now ;D |

mot expires 5th of Feb 2008 ( about 6 weeks from now) hence the price but when it was in having the clutch done ( three weeks ago ) the garage owner and chief mot tester gave it the once over and couldent see anything it would fail on , no lhm leaks , all pipes ok etc .also please bear in mind its only done just over 3,000 miles since the last mot unfortunately the car has a disabled tax disc which I am not allowed to transfer with the car I would not be selling the car if it was not for an old arm injury that has recently flared up again , it causes me to lose grip and feel in my right arm , ok in an auto but not so good when piloting a saxo killing rocket capable of 140 mph  this is my fourth BX ( others being a 19trs and two 8 valve GTi's ) and is by far the best and will be greatly missed |

rather than just keep bumping the BX ( is that a criminal offence ? ) I thought I would be a bit different This little animal really exists! It's called a Naked Mole-Rat, from Africa.  So if you are having a bad day and feeling sorry for yourself, Remember: Going through life is hard enough, but to go through life looking like a cock with buck teeth must be horrible (mind you that is a description that fits most saxo driving chavs ) |
