Went to weigh a car in on Thursday and spotted a dark grey metallic BX hatchback!
Also, amongst the folorn collection of cars, there was a TR7 V8 FHC, seems a right waste but there you go I suppose.
Anyone here used to own the BX?

My dad has a TR7 which I haven't seen for so long I've forgotten what it looks like.

A Y reg convertible, and it's STILL being restored at that TR7 specialist somewhere near Bacup. It's got a brand new V8 in it to replace the old slant 4, and apart from floor/sill/wing repairs etc. etc. he's having power steering put in it!! They've got to have had it over 2 years now.
