Getting into BXs again... dangerous stuff.

Post by christhelion »

Since advertising my car and spending a bit more time with it (clearing junk out of it etc) I've found myself cheekily on here all the time whilst at work reading about BXs. Then when I'm at home I'm looking at videos of them.

I'm starting to get into them again just as I'm getting rid of my only one. If I wasn't battling to pay bills (after my flatmate moved out) and battling to keep transport on the road to get me to work I'd not be selling it but some things aren't meant to be.

Oh well :(

Its a disease I tell ya, I had a 8 year break but eventually you succomb to the lures of BX'dom.

Why not get a 1.4 or diesel instead as it will be cheaper to own.
Lots of Motors, mostly semi broken....

I usually have breaks of several years between BXs. I keep coming back though...

Nah I'll wait until I can get a 16valve. At the moment car insurance is ridiculous because I never insure a car (transit is company vehicle). They want £1300 for the bx now so I'm not running a car for a while.

Plus they have two many wheels. It'd take something impressive like a 16valve to get me back into the joys of sitting in traffic stationary again :P


Actually, I could do a TZD but I wouldn't be thrilled about a 1.4
