16TXI with low miles, not the best colour (sorry) but looks tidy.

Im not far from Stoke but its not worth that with no MOT and the problems highlighted, nice drive though and no starting issues

Worth it just for the 'Hydroelastic suspension' and those tasty wheeltrims =P~

If the shell is really that good, it's worth it for that alone surely?

ditch the wheel trims, and what's with the front number plate?

If it was diesel and had massive miles and worn interior, the number plate would point to taxi use maybe? But it doesn't and isn't so can't be. :D

I still look at £350 for a non-roadworthy BX as a lot of money! Especially one that's going to need tickling with a welding stick before long. I'm a member of Retro-Rides though, so I've tried to give it a boost...

Really its worth £150-200 tops, nice mileage and could be made a nice cheap runabout for someone, its a long way from home as she was originally registered in Scotland.

Scrap value, but looks quite nice tbh :) & its a manual injection, normally all you ever see are the auto 1.6i models.

Worth £350 of anybodies money I think. Very rare, cosmetically very tidy and only a few minor issues to put straight (there will be more stuff than mentioned in the ad though I expect). If it was an auto, I'd be robbing a bank and demolishing my Mums house so I had somewhere to park it right now!
