Listen to the voices and go for the valver! I can tell you that at least the exhaust cross box and OSR door are good.

Haven't seen under the bonnet of one of those for yonks, my God; the space to work around the engine!

Hurricane interior looks awesome in that
Just needs a decent set of wheels and a clean up to get that looking spot on IMO.
The space around the engine is great! TU's are so easy to work on it's untrue. A league ahead of the XU in terms of user friendliness! I've found Fords that are harder to work on that a TU engined BX

There's been a lot of chat about BX14s recently, and some have said they're underpowered. I've owned/driven most types of BX except for a valver, and the slowest by far was a BX11 I drove in Italy. Before anyone gasps in disbelief, yes they did make a BX11 and, surprisingly, most seem to have been sold in Italy. Well, it was the home of the FIAT 500, the BX11 was almost as slow, but had a lot more room.
