Tell us about BXs you have spotted on the road, or BXs/parts spotted for sale including eBay finds.

I was going to post about that car earlier (honest I was guv!). It`s at least the third time it`s been listed and I`m sure on at least one occasion it met reserve. I seem to remember it went once for about £1200 though someone may correct me on that one. Nice car, nice plate silly price. Interesting to know why it keeps re-appearing though-I wonder (without any proof or substance to back this up) if this is one of the many `get a mate to bid on it and shove the price up` jobbies?

We should know!


The guy seems desperate to get stupid money for the car or more importantly the plate, and while he says every now and again he'll split them he never seems to be very keen on the idea and i think this is why it keeps getting relisted! It will probably end up as a scrapper befre not too long!

Has anybody out there actually been to see the car? Is it worth saving? How much do you think it'd cost to get repaired? There aren't that many about, after all...
