An early Mk2 16TRS auto, getting rare now, not many takers on here I imagine as though.

I can help out with mirrors and window motors, if its venetian red it will be quite faded but most probably saveable with some good machine polishing.

> Attached are a few photos of the my BX, it's a 1.6 trs, it’s ok I used it for the last few years as an every day car and it runs well but will need some work for the MOT. The speedo and drivers door window (rusty runner) do not work. The rear suspension creaks probably the swing arm bearings. But it is a lovely car to drive, so easy, I had the belts, inc cam belt changed, new exaust, new steering rack seals. I have the old MOts and some service history, it's worth £125 to the scrapman, i would rather it went to an enthusiast.
> Sorry no tax and MOT to 30 Jan 2012.


I have some pictures, its faded but looks very tidy and well worth the £125!

I have photos if you give me your email Tom, someone else has already expressed an interest though.

This car is the full rate of tax though £215 but should qualify for classic insurance but your age may scupper that.
