Soon to be breaking 1991 BX GTi 8v

Post by BX4X4X2 »

Hi, just picked up a BX GTI, unfortunately rusted out on n/s rear and couple of rusty ft to rr pipes so will be broken.
It`s dark met. blue (EMQ - memphis blue) with later GTI trim.
Runs well, no funny running due to being on the later injection system.

Let me know if you need anything.

Call in and see it for Mike. (it`s not far from a BX van - can`t be many of those round here!)

Had a look at this car last night and it's a damn shame really! it was taken off the road with suspect head gasket failure, although it seems to run ok. It looks really good inside and out, but when you get underneath it has the kiss of death rotten rear sills, with the rust creeping up into the subframe mounts and rails above the subframe. It's doable, but the sub frame needs dropping and it's not economically viable sadly.
