Yeah I know this is all BXs, but thought I would ask if anyone knew anything about a French blue CX saloon driving across University roundabout in Sheffield about 6 tonight. I know there's a CX estate around Crookes somewhere too (likin' it).

Was the driver quite old with a generous beard & wild looking hair?

Was it Gandalf? Has he come back to The (York) Shire? I could imagine him or Karl Marx driving a knackered old Citroen. Didn't see what the driver looked like though sorry.

Infact, the more i think about it, i'm sure the nice gent that i'm referring to has a red cx22trs, so it can't be him, unless he has another cx?

Is that Karl Marx III, the injected version, just after the revolution? It all went horribly wrong for the Marx V and the V8. :lol:

Think I met that guy at the June Hope car meet once. He was a bit Papa Smurf rather than beardy socks-n-sandals but had a nice dark red CX.
