The owner's put a thread on the BX 16v forum about the car, so he can be contacted there if anyone's interested.

Mr. Leech right on the money: I absolutely loathe those wheels. Speedlines or bust on a valver I'm afraid :roll:

Certainly a lovely car though by the look of it - just a couple of easy fixes to get it really tidy.

Hmm, reserve not met at £500.

Might the seller be being a bit optimistic? - I know it's low mileage and nice and all, but it's a Cat C and rust round the windscreen is a bit of a bugger innit?

I don't like the wheels, it's not natural for brake discs to be all exposed and nekkid like that :lol:

Badges removed, they may be hard to find, body looks tidy though ! Lets just hope it doesn't get stripped for another 205 project

Theyre on to 2.0CT and the 6 speeders out of 306 GTi 6's now by the looks of it.

I rather like those wheels too, they are unconventional for a BX i'll admit, but do seem to 'work'. The exhaust however, needs to be returned to the bin shed in the front garden it was pinched from. Apart from the bumper(s, can't decide why the front one looks odd?) and windscreen it looks nice!

the front bumper looks odd because the black inset is missing.

Well one thing's for sure: those wheels have really divided opinion.

Anyone know of a place to buy inserts/ beading. My valver is missing a few inches here an there, alot of 80's cars had them but I can't seem to find replacements, I thought you would just be able to get it on a roll !!!! Maybe im just not looking in the right places

I like the wheels too - are they 15"? I'm not a big fan of the Speedlines, though they are obviously OE and 80s I think there is room for improvement though I would stick to alternatives contemporary with the era.
