It came into my possession only last week but i just dont have the space to keep it so it will have to go. Over the years the car has been well maintained an looked after mechanically regardless of cost and is in very good condition for its age. starts and drives perfect The paint work could do with a T cut as its gone a little dull. Places were corrosion accurs has been treated, the interior is in good condition too with no rips in the seats. the tyres have loads of tread, tax and tested, just insure and drive away
A friend whos a BX fanatic, possibly near to them ( Batley/Yorkshire ) :-k

Tidy little car that, and a rare early pre-facelift car with those wheeltrims and clear lenses,starting bids a bit sharp though!

It's had some extras fitted (fog lamps, spoiler), but he'd have more chance with a fresh MOT

They're GTi/Meteor trims aren't they? I can't decide if the spoiler looks silly or not either

They are TX stylee wheeltrims, but the very first 16TGS/14TGE did come with those for a few months before the rest of the range was facelifted (tinted lamps etc).

Interesting, my (also) G reg TGE (G67 UNR) I bought off of Richard had the more common TG style trims with tinted rear lamps, but IIRC that was a 1990 car. Citroen did like to chop and change things about didn't they!

I've decided I quite like this now, although price is totally unrealistic! It's dirty inside too. It's just 10 months too early! I'll get that long-suffering look of patience if I even suggest buying it to him indoors though...

Wait until it doesn't make reserve then and put in an offer Tom. You know you want to.

You know I want to, I know I want to, most of this forum knows I want to. But Steve doesn't know I want to, and that's the way I would like it to stay *waits for smutty comments* probably from Mick :D

At that price it might hang around a bit, maybe till next May?? I can hope [-o<

The E-bay listing /\ showed as sold for £300 (with just 1-bid) but obviously the sale fell thro' as there's a link to it being RE-LISTED for a third time, when it shows as sold for £285 !

If you missed out on G65 RNA back then, its only done 2,500 miles since it was last F/S and can be yours now, as I've just spotted it F/S again on Gumtree !

The same car popped up on a facebook group yesterday where is is asking only 275 for it.

Interesting price drop. if it wasnt in scotland i'd probably buy it at 275.
