Checked mot history nothing terrible.

Bit lacking in detail/photos, but already a bid on it.

Could be a potential goodun, I'd say the rear exhaust hanger is shot and history shows it's had some nearside rear end welding done about 5yr back.
Yes agreed the ad is a bit short most likely a scrap dealer judging by where the photos are taken.
Fair play at +2k , I might just hang on to my TD for a bit longer.

Up to £2250 I reckon it will hit 3k still a few days left.

I hope the bidders have viewed it. Looks good but what lurks beneath?

I think this reflects the current market for 80s/90s "modern classics" with many commanding top money,
Cars that we've all had in the past and scrapped, smashed and neglected, now goldmines.

. . . and eminently repairable. In the case of the BX, an extraordinarily good supply of decently priced service parts readily available.

Wonder if the buyer got it for that extra Fiver?
Fair price, assuming no grizzles underneath.
