Nice 16TZS Auto.

I'm bidding on this lovely looking example.

As always I would hope to get it cheap, due to its faults, short tax and test and of course it's age.

If I'm successful and get it home, I would have a good look round it, cost out it's repair and if its worth saving, I would do so. if not

The point I'm making is, these cars are always much cheaper and easier to buy than to sell, especially when you've done all the work and put the thing into good order, even an MOT today adds another 40 quid on to it. Add an oil & filter change, LHM, and gearbox oil, and in this case an octopus and you're somewhere between £200 and £300 already.

Well I`m glad there`s people like you about Ken. I can`t see many (any?) non confirmed BXer`s putting all that effort in and saving cars which will become an extremely rare site sooner rather than later. Good luck if you get it and I`m sure someone will buy it off you once you`ve succesfully got it right.

Good on you Ken, Ive just bought another Bx TGd automatic very cheap as its needs some tlc! Will keep you posted to its its progress, this is the one that may need a headgasket, but has leather seats so had to eb worth saving from the scarppers.

Nice one Tim. I was going to go for that myself, swap the seats round and sell the rest for whaetever I could get for it. A bit too far from me hence I didn`t bid on it.
Good luck anyway and please give me first dibs on the interior should you ever wish to sell it.
