Bear in mind that was 18 years ago. I imagine the price of diesel today isn't much adrift of that relatively speaking.

Nice find indeed...

I absolutely love my TD engine. It delivers just the right amount of power needed to move the BX and it's extremely fuel efficient. And that clickery clackering sound is actually music to my ears :)

Interesting that Jez was discussing environmental aspects way back in 1991.
Smokes lots, because enough's enough already!

Far too many BX's, a bus, an ambulance a few trucks, not enough time and never enough cash...

Yeah, oddly the P's and Q's went with wealth! Ironic..

There was a BX on Top Gear a couple of series back I think, on an episode they were showing car pictures on the screen with huge spoilers on and one of the cars was a BX!
