Nice looking P1 valver though..

Isn't having indicators in the mirrors a bit chavy....
Smokes lots, because enough's enough already!

Far too many BX's, a bus, an ambulance a few trucks, not enough time and never enough cash...

Even a BX could be chav'd I'm sure, nothing is safe from Chavness...
Not even Cafe Noir biscuits are safe. Lock your daughters up!

It was a joke :D :wink:

IMHO. Don't do it. The BX was not designed with them. I have no problem with enhancing a car with modifications, like stainless steel exhausts or deflectors or alloys even... but unless (or even if) the indicators are flush with the wing mirrors á la Mercedes/Ford, it'll just look sad, mate.
