From the ad on Ebay:

'eBay would not allow me to use the car's VIN number which is VF7XBXB0017XB7706.'

Love it! Don't tell him Pike! :D

Mmmm $4000? What's that in the Queens finest folding these days? About 80quid!? Does look lovely though. I'd drive it (but won't be) :(

Love the numberplate! $4K is just over £2,000.

Low mileage and if it's lived in California, then hopefully has stayed free of any rust - although the plate is a Montana one?

Nice looking car.

From ad:

Even though it was legally brought in and went through the D.O.T. and E.P.A. process, California doesn't have it in it's smog computers. If you're from California, as I am, you'll have to have it registered in another State and then not drive it on public roads. I drive it within our community's 4 miles of private roads.

That's California, let get this BX to Europe !!

Does look rather nice! Odd how it's listed as a 2.0, it's not a GT so must be a 16 surely? Unless it's a foreign spec and I don't know what i'm on about, a common occurrence apparently :)

looks like a 1905 to me..
Smokes lots, because enough's enough already!

Far too many BX's, a bus, an ambulance a few trucks, not enough time and never enough cash...

A Mk.1 with functioning 'air' as they call it in the USeless of A! That's a rarity, perhaps only seen before in Aus? Does look relatively clean but can't be driven on public roads! We had one member from the US before but his BX had no seats and he was trying to find some. Never heard from him again. Must be an expensive headache getting parts for that but as it's never driven perhaps nothing has worn out apart from - quite bizarrely - the steering rack?? After 39,000 miles?

i think it's legal to drive it in any state other than cali - but it doesn't conform to their 'smog laws', which are more stringent than other states.

may be wrong tho...

The /\ link seems a bit Flaky (On Fire-fox), I've just managed to note the item number down and got it to display correctly !

So if others have had the same problem ? THIS link should work okay :wink:
