"The BX Dommage was only available in the colors 'Fraise Abimee' (red) and 'Bleu Mamalou' (blue)"
Google-translate has Fraise Abimee = Damaged Strawberry
and Mamalou is not a French word, autodetect in Google-translate says it's Turkish
Then I found this reference to Mamalou in google
http://bellanta.wordpress.com/tag/mama-lou/
Several years ago I worked in Holland for a couple of years, and there are blocks of flats in areas, that are solely inhabited by the Turkish community, so I suspect "Bleu Mamalou" is a very esoteric reference

EDIT 2: http://www.ktv.no/~oyl-ktv/lyrics/mama%20lou.htm
and from Citroen-forum.nl
http://www.citroen-forum.nl/forums/viewthread/163077/ a thread titled "Welke BX hier niet te koop geweest" (which BX has not been for sale), go to the second page and a posting by XBXG with a picture of a BX 11, and he says
—> de BX 11 heeft wel bestaan
—> de BX Dommage heeft niet bestaan
which speaks for itself and is the consensus of the thread, and they too cannot translate "Bleu Mamalou"
