:rofl: Is someone looking at the wrong photo? I'm very confused.

The St Tropez looks nice but there's always going to be a limited interest in basic spec non-PAS cars at that kind of price. Be interested to see if he gets any takers - wasn't £1200 what it sold for last July? I'd be quite surprised if it makes four figures tbh.

Now on eBay at £900 with a reserve and a BIN of £1200. So what's the point of starting at 900 when you have a reserve, I ask myself. Far more interest to be gained from a low start. Then at least the buyer gets an idea how many people are actually interested. Anyway, link here

It does look nice, compared to some recent high priced cars, it does seem to quite a tempting car even at £1200 :)

Could be a good basis to make a nice 16v lookalike (ducks for cover)!

Well I think both of them are fantastic BX,s
I think Tim,s BX was worth every penny and I also think that James,s BX is an absolute steal even at £1200. I " ditto " what Tim says and I to think that the white one will still be very collectable for another good few years to come.

To capitalise on the fabulous condition, I think James should have taken a few more interior and engine bay pics. I know you can't tell a lot from the photo, but at least you get an impression of the condition. I see he's got a bid at £900 which I think is a result in itself, but obviously with a reserve it still won't sell unless there are other bidders to push it up to the reserve.
