Some stuff I'm interested in

Post by Tourist »

Right so the BX is getting back on the road, there are a few non-essential parts I'd quite like for it. :)

- interior BX mats? Original ones would be very nice!
- Rear mud guards? Original to match fronts.
- Speedlines! Preferably GREY but I plan to paint them to match the car ...

Many thanks in advance :wink:

Erm, i'd just buy any old car mats, otherwise you'll be waiting for a while as not commonplace anymore.

Rear mudflaps, very rare, just get some standard one's from the bay of dread, alternatively go to some of the ccc meets this year & you might find some.

Speedlines, seeing as you're wanting to paint them then the silver one's will be suitable as well :wink: Didnt you see those nice graphite one's on e-bay recently with decent tyres on? Anyway, i'm sure some will turn up at some point, again its a waiting game. Did you want 5.5's or the valvers 6j's?

Tell me to mind my business by all means, but as it would seem funds are limited, wouldn't you be better putting your time, energy and spare £££ into making it work properly rather than the cosmetics? It already looks more than presentable in any case...

Good point but I'm doing just that, and it's costing less than expected hense a few spare pounds. This car deserves some nice touches after being dumped at a farm for a few weeks :D

Mulley, I'd take either 5.5 or 6j I'm not too fussed to be honest. With or without tyres, as long as they're not kerbed to death I'm very interested!

As for the mats and mud guards they're lower in priority, to be honest I wasn't aware they were so rare :oops: so no worries.

I could be persuaded to sell the speedlines that are on the TZD turbo that I'm repairing at the moment. They look good on the car, but a set of steelies will do it just as well.

They are in very good condition, barely any marks. Wearing 195's all round, two of which have just 800 miles on them, the others are about 30%-40% worn.

Given that the pair of tyres was ~£90 not 2 weeks ago, I'd be looking for £100 for the set as a minimum.
this might be a signature
