Not sure what's going on with the side trims. Looks untidy to me. Not the prettiest BX I've ever seen, and IMHO not more than £750's worth. My truly spotless 23k miler TGS auto went for that.

18 years old & low mileage, that sounds like a recipe for expense if you ask me. I bet its got all its original parts on it still.

So as soon as you start putting a few miles on it, guess what!!!
everything will need replacing as the old parts will no doubt crumble to dust.

Does look in very good condition apart from the dodgy rubbing strips.

I wouldnt pay anymore than £400 unless there was paperwork showing what has been spent on it & when.... & if that meant no expense would be required in the 1st year of ownership then a realistic £600 would be paid, not a grand, Get real......

It looks to have had the TZ set of wider rubbing strips added on aswell as the originals, tidy car though but too much money, worth about half that I suppose BUT find another 32k miles BX diesel anywhere.

You wont! lol

My TD has over 500,000 miles on it now, but the engine (as it stands today) has only 12K miles on it.

The mileage is a bit of a non issue really, you can find a really good 200,000 miler, or a creamed 10,000 miler.

Either way, even with the "reduced" price tag this is still WAYHEY too much folding.
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...
