Wanted - a keeper.. a nice BX or other classic Citroen

Post by maxgreenwood »

I am now officially on the lookout for something nice to complement my BX estate which is racking up the miles as my daily driver. Anything considered as long as its in really good nick, preferably low miles and driving as new.

My prefernce in BXs would be
1. a mk1 anything good or interesting
2. GTi / TR/TZi / 19 auto, maybe a 16 auto
3. (another) mk2 TD estate.

I can use my existing TD estate for fuel economy...

I would also consider a GS/GSA/CX or DS (although good ones are probably out of my price range) Its a difficult one cos for 30+ yr old cars here there big incentives.

Short MOT and tax is not a problem as car will be imported into Ireland.

Many thanks!

the black GT looks reeeally nice. If its still available the next time i'm in Notts visiting my folks i might go and have a look. Needs a bit of work though, but i suppose if its not rusting and the ignition can be replaced it would be worth it - ideally i'm looking for something i don't have to spend all my time underneath, but if anything this GT would be worth it.

If the underneath is as good as the topside you may be in luck, for £300 its a rare beast and wouldnt take much to get it up to "scratch"

You want an old citroen & dont want to get underneath, quite a contradiction :wink: or perhaps you know of a good garage :lol:
