It's funny, it seems all bx drivers love those sun roof deflectors...I rekon a nice s/r deflector would convince me to buy an absolute shed of a bx!!!

No, I've sorted myself out with an even better example, I think
So feel free to have a go if you want to!

Nope, it's not. It's much nicer than that one.

I'm pretty tempted, although that may be pre-MOT jitters. Looks in better nick than mine, and probably get it for 200quid. SWMBO would kill me though - "look honey, I bought you a car!" (Sound of blunt object hitting BX enthusiast.)

She Who May Be Overruled (At your grave peril) has been instrumental in helping with Swampy's rehabilitation. Is she not ready to embark upon another project? (You could always give her the BX and buy an XM to break, mend, moan about and play with. Just an idea.)

Ah, Tom.
Her early flush of enthusiasm has given way to a low-level carping about the amount of time, money etc. etc.
She won't drive the BX, says it hurts her wrist changing gear ?!?
But I take your point sir.
