My 16v
Hi
Rather than clog up my blog (a acquired taste!) with pics, I thought I'd start putting pics of my BX up here (as is the tradition).
To start, here are pics I took shortly after I got it a few weeks ago, and before I spent hundreds on it
The car now sports a sunroof deflector and a Scorpion/Cituning SS exhaust back box with 76mm tail pipe. It also has new tyres. Most of the expense was on things you can't see, like rear arm bearings, spheres, pipes, radiator, etc. etc.
When the weather improves I'll find a nice spot to do some more shots - and get some interior ones done too.
EDIT: And I've also since put on the C Pillar badges

Cars like that abound on the Footballer's wives-like estate that is Beaulieu Park - As I mentioned elsewhere, the house I was parked opposite used to belong to an East Enders actress...nstarmore wrote:who's is the C6 and the Bentley?
It's all fluff though - it's a horrid new build with lots of ostentatious displays of wealth. The cars (noticably Range Rovers, Porsche Cayennes, Bentleys etc) being the most tasteless of all.
I took the BX there because there's no one around usually!

That looks great Phil and glad that it's now in the gallery. Look forward to seeing it shining at The National!

Compared to Phil's it's the lowest form of 16v life : bleached out, weathered paint and general rat look!

Yes, I thought that: I remember seeing a set once - should've bought 'em!Matt H wrote: the side repeaters finish it off nicely, although I always liked the smoked ones, which for some strange reason you can't buy any more.
Oh, and thanks Dave! Hope you're feeling better and well on the road.... in a BX of course!
