A good mate of mine who has a DS and a 2CV wants a practical estate with a bit of character for his business, and has long admired my BX's so has asked me to keep an eye out for a nice estate to use every day.
I suggested a TZD Turbo but a nice 1.9D would also be considered.
He is more like me in as such as he can do small jobs and keeps his cars in excellent condition so ideally a car with good good bodywork and mechanicals is preferred.
Budget is not a major issue, as he is preparred to pay good money for a good car.
Thanks

I thought it was about time to join the forum, especially if I'm to become a BX owner!
Cheers Tim for kicking this off for me - I couldn't have described what I'm looking for any better myself. It may be a practical car I'm looking for, but I'd prefer it to be something a little different to the norm. I'm hoping that someone may be able to save me from a fate worse than an Astra Estate.

Hi Ian,
Yes, it's the same Jon that used to go to wasps all those years ago! A few cars have passed through the fleet (including the DS) but the 2cv remains - 18 years in my ownership this year!
Have been reading about your mk1 estate with interest, even saw your clip on YouTube. Hope you're well?
