Cream/beige/ivory 16

Post by Philip Chidlow »

Looks OK?

It's got odd wheel trims, but OE ones are fairly common... Driver's seats a bit worn by the look of it, but looks like it's make someone a nice runabout.

Yes, very strange lighting - looks like those Nasa pictures of M'arse.
Yet another Grandad BX - my Grandad couldn't drive so he couldn't have left me his BX - but I wouldn't have PXed it if he had..

What, Nasa took pictures of your arse? There must be some infringment/personal privacy issues there mate, I'd be on to them if I were you?

Yeah NASAs pictures of M'arse and Yr'anus - there's probably about as much likelihood that Nasa went to those places as anywhere else they claim to have been..

I thought that too - wrong kind of fuel though! I *really* want a diesel next.

Rather like mine, I think! Anything effectively valueless (like a BX or a melodeon) should be made to work as intended rather than stored and looked at.

Swapping out an engine seems like rather a lot of work when there are still cars available in the spec I want though!
