Hmm... the words needle and haystack come to mind.

I don't think I've ever seen one... wasn't there one painted up looking nice in yellow that someone in France (?) posted pics of on here last month...?

Ian you do worry me about what you think is sexy!, and you know full well they didnt make a 16TRS estate. Must have been a 19TRS or a 16RS! 8)

I had no idea this was such a rare car. Any BX is rare here in Germany. Good luck with your hunt. It seems they were only made for about a year or so. Is that right?

Hello! there are some more pictures in one of my previous posts. It's in the same category as this ( BX chat), at the bottom of the first page and its entitled 'Greetings from South Germany' ( 15th Jan) . There are some pictures attached plus a bit of a story about the car. Glad you like it. I'm planning on coming over for the CCC meeting this summer if all goes well. Regards

Used to have one of these, C plate with the letters NAN as a suffix...can't remember the letters though. Sold it with a mark 2 interior in it and all the door cards.

Hhmm, interesting, if the plate was NAN it's very likely it was a Citroen UK owned car, I know they had several CX's with NAN plates, my mates CX Turbo being one, C218 NAN, which featured in various press pieces of the time.

Smokes lots, because enough's enough already!

Far too many BX's, a bus, an ambulance a few trucks, not enough time and never enough cash...

I've seen that piece of info a couple of other places re the Cit ownership never saw it confirmed. I still can't remember the numbers but forgot to say it was a 1.9 RD in silver, bloke who bought it nearly snapped my arm off as it was so nice inside (not too shabby outside either) but the interior was a breath of fresh air to all the other MK 1 's he'd seen with their 'tired' drivers seats etc........ I didn't bother to wire the leccy fronts to the door cards as I quite liked the controls on the centre console.....also forgot to take the wind deflectors off it.
