Damn, I missed it! I had been checking on the CCC website for weeks from around April, but couldn't find any mention of it. What was the BX turn out like this year & did anyone get any pictures?

It was heavily promoted on Facebook and there were things in the mag.

I popped along in the C6 and saw three Mk. 1 BX and a red Mk. 2 estate for the few hours I was about. Used to be soooo many a few years ago.

there was quite a lot more last year, I think it clashed with a few other rallies and holidays.

For those who missed the CCC Festival there's the CCC Chevrons Rally the Weekend after next 6-8th September. It's at Little Horwood MK17 0PF. Not specifically BX but nominally for the CCC "X-section" - i.e. AX, BX, CX, Xantia, XM, ZX, Xsaras. Hoping to be there with my recently-purchased TZD estate. Despite a bit of 50 shades of red going on I'm hoping not to win "shed of show" again as I did a couple of years back.
