I have a sticker on my BX which recommends exactly this - if starting from warm depress pedal fully till it starts too!
It is an official BX Citroen sticker from new!

not that simple im affraid the starter motor is not turning at all not even a click, the transport company said she starts with a tow so it will be a loose connection somewhere. i put the battery on charge last night so will have another bash later on,i had to charge it because some nosey bleeder was poking around it on monday and had left the doors open so the interior lights were on Thank goodness for my four legged security guards!

Try fitting a manual choke...
My Gt (now sorted) starts first kick every time cold ...full choke (no throttle) and almost immediately push the choke back in...
Hot/warm no probs ....minor throttle ..and she will fire first kick...it is everything that I always expected from a Weber equipped car...
