Citroën BX LHM reservoir flower pot

Post by Jugostran »

As the title says, I made a flower pot out of an old leaking LHM reservoir. Not sure if this is the right place to put it, as it defies categorisation but is BX related.
Feel free to post your thoughts and comments below.
Have a very good day!

Good use for it. A real enthusiast might have one lined up for something else. 😂
Prefer it to the Lamborghini, like Signor Gandini!

Thanks, and, agreed!
So many parts from a BX make for neat ornaments. This reservoir looks like a seriously cool flower pot or vase.

I have not thought about using it as a hat, but now you've given me the inspiration to do so.
