How much is a BX worth ?
How much is a BX worth ?
I've seen a BX 16 TRS H reg for sale at the roadside for £225.
It is all there, with MOT to 11/07, VED to 8/07 and 110K on the clock.
Condition is clean, with only the paint needing a t-cut. Colour is red.
Do fellow BXers think £225 is a reasonable asking price? Or should it be less ?
Thanks for any feedback.

£225 sounds ok, but there should be room for a bit of haggling. I bought my first Meteor off the side of the road. The advert in the window said £300, but I knocked him down to £200 cash and said we could go to the nearest cashpoint straight away.
The second Meteor, with a lot lower mileage, was £100 buy-it-now on the Bay! Both cars had decent amounts of MOT and tax, and the second one came with FSH
Mark.

If its a H plate it will be a TZS but sounds ok at £225, if its tidy.jrdpod wrote:I've seen a BX 16 TRS H reg for sale at the roadside for £225.

Why would a car badged as a 1.6 Petrol be a 1.7 Turbodiesel?

Here's my price guide suggestion:
TRS with TRS badges £150.
TZD with TRS badges £175.
TRS with TZD badges £125.
TRS with TZD badges and Halfords wheeltrims £1.79.
TZD with TRS badges and TGE wheeltrims £1,250 (trims are rare, only made 171.2 of them).
TZD with TRS badges and genuine Citroen alloy wheels: £6,794
For all the above: prices fluctuate minus or plus 300% if has (or hasn't) original owner's handbook, correct radio flap colour and whether previous owner replaced with a Xantia.
On a slightly more serious note I'd check very carefully for any future MOT failure points. Usual things like inner wings, exhaust hangar, door hinge areas, door bottoms, signs of smoking on start up or when booted hard, plus brakes, handbrake etc. All this on top of the usual checks for interior heater working etc.
