Wanted: BX 16V, Prefer a Phase 1

Post by Mike P »

Hi all,

I'm on the look out for a Bx 16V since selling my Carlton last year.

I'd prefer a Phase 1 but a Phase 2 is more than acceptable.

Does anybody know of one for sale or have one they would like to sell.

Money wise, I'll consider a rough project one for beer change or will pay top money for a good condition car.

A lowish mileage Phase 1 ticks all my boxes but needle in haystack comes to mind.

Thanks,

Mike P.

So possibly Nstarmore's/Geoff's old valver is going to get Matt H's old leather interior then Mike? :wink: There were some pics in Nstarmores old blog but they've all gone. Is it.. grey? If this does go through I would be interested in the old passenger side front seat ( if you do remove the interior that is!) - which is driver's side here.
Does the passenger side have all the adjustments too or only the driver's seat?

Todd,

I'm going to speak to Geoff tonight, so will keep you posted.

The leather interior is planned to be fitted to my next Bx, so the seats would be available in that case.

I can't remember what adjustements the passenger seat would have.

Hello Mike,

I didn't want to 'jump the gun' so to speak. But, whatever happens, glad you're (potentially) getting back into BXing! :D

I'm going to view the car this Sunday morning, so will advise in due course.

I didn't think that a Phase 1 would appear so quickly :D

Neither did I! There can't be more than about 15 or 20 left in the country by now.

Good on ya Mike, I would have let you have a drive in mine the other weekend had there been an interior in it :lol:

All being well, I will be taking possession of the new car on Thursday next week :D

Todd: Once I've been through the interiors that are coming with the car, I'll be in contact about front seats.

That's good news Mike! What is your verdict as to what needs doing to this car?

Geoff, I sent you a PM a few days ago re your questions earlier in this thread.
