Sorry, naff. (I've seen it with IMPREZA or OFF-ROADING and some such)...

Imprezza, no thanks, Chavtastic.

Aside from the fact that it doesn't actually make grammatical sense, I don't think it's too naff only in the way that I do feel that the BX is something that flies over the head of most people, so it's pointless trying to explain. Low values and that unloved status add to the appeal for me.

But then to have a sticker that read it on the back of the car...that's trying a bit too hard isn't it?

Much better to have a bumper sticker on your bx which says "My other car is a BX"

I'd say its a bit naff as a bumper sticker, tbh its a bit naff as anything else. Got to agree with what its trying to say though, for my birthday my friends got me a t-shirt with "I <3 BX" writen on it and very few people get it and when I do explain it i just get funny looks!

probably because the syntax is wrong, personally I will always be greater than three BX's, or four, or five, I is not comparable to a BX, now if it had been Delorean <= 3BX, perhaps you would have a point.

I just get the funny looks without trying to explain anything...

Its ment to read "I <3 (Heart) BX" sorry for the confusion there. Its people who just haven't heard of or don't appreciate the citroen BX that don't understand it of course, I class them as the muggles of this world as they haven't experienced the magic of the BX!

Amen to that bro. I always just think they must be dumbstruck by my rugged good looks...

Perhaps in your case it is also the fact that you are about 19 feet tall…

That could also be a factor...
