BX with 1124cc was only available in Italy, Portugal and Greece!

And this is a MK2, very,very rare !!!

Gutless wonder complete with towbar - wonder what size trailer they had?

The 1.7D was only 60bhp and would have weighed more, 5 speed box too!

The 1.7D might have only been 60hp but it had torque, in fact the first BX I ever rode in!.

A little more thinking on the towbar on the 1100 has revealed the answer - the boot on the BX was not big enough for the hundred or so 5ltr wine bottles the Italians are so fond of...

Those that have seen the 3 wheel Piaggios loaded up with them and 'netted' to contain them will know what I mean.

Mama mia mia,
Prices are high for old stuff in Italy. I saw this in Rome priced at 3500EUR on my last visit. Thats a bit more than its tiny scrap value :

It probably wouldn't have anymore torque output at the wheels, where it matters. It'll be easier to access (you'd have to screw a 1.1 hard achieve the same) but the petrol probably kicks out a similar figure at the wheels.....possibly even more.

And check out that glovebox.....thing!

That glovebox thing was also in some Dutch models, like the BX "Cannes" and BX 14E and BX 14TE !
Because the LHD models have also a glovebox on top of the dashboard !!

And the BX 11 has only one mirror !!!

Lots of French-market BXs had only one mirror, and a complete lack of all the electrical extras that we were used to on UK models. and a lot of LHD ones had the dashboard/glovebox exactly like the one in that ad.

i had a peugeot 305 years ago which had the same 1124cc engine fitted, not too bad around town, and for visiting the wine cellars no doubt, but a bit of a struggle at motorway speeds, also noticed the lack of an oil level gauge i assume they just have a light to tell u all yr oil has gone and u have to walk home, prob a nice rust free example too.
