Quick question. Will a BX estate tailgate fit INSIDE a BX estate? Hoping to collect a replacement one next week.

turn it at an angle and yes - I fitted an XM hatch inside an XM hatch ... plenty of space too for other bits and pieces.

I once fitted a BX hatch in the back of an AX

You'll be fine.

Thanks! Thought I'd check before committing. Could be embarrassing...

I once fitted a 2.1td engine and gearbox into an AX

I know that 2 Wartburg engines in the back of a Reliant makes the steering go all light

The first trike I built had a Wartburg Knight engine.
1000cc stroker.
I was still learning when I built the frame from conduit

instead of solid drawn tube.
