Yes please, that would make me very happy indeedy. There are a few other bits of trim I need too if available, but really no rush, can wait until it's all catalogued/organised. I'd be up for a sticker too I expect.Paul296 wrote:The hatch load covers are all fine and there were one or two more knocking about in the shed (Sandre?).

All prices are negotiable but will be very reasonable. The object of the exercise is to keep BX's (and their owners) happy . . . and we all like a bit of 'happy'!

Hmm how interesting! Shame they're all diesels really, still they will help many BXers out on here i'm sure.

Re: Paul's polishin' blog
They're all savable more or less but would require a lot more money spending on them than their market value. They have to be gone by late summer whatever happens so breaking them and storing all the parts seemed like the best solution.Roverman wrote:Christ, what a shame, that DTR Turbo estate is VERY VERY rare now indeed! is it saveable.

Re: Paul's polishin' blog
Could certainly do with some panels off that white TZD! Doors, tailgate etc... If they are straight and rust-free.
Although it seems a waste of an L-plate BX.

Re: Paul's polishin' blog
I haven't looked at them closely Matt so can't say for sure, but they do look pretty straight. Assuming the car gets broken (I think it probably will) can you let me know what it is you're after and I'll get you some pics and a price.Matt H wrote:Could certainly do with some panels off that white TZD!

Re: Paul's polishin' blog
If you turn up a back bumper in the "proper " meteor colour can you let me know ( or just nick Shauns when he's not looking )
spied a couple of sunroof deflectors in the pics, if any of the door ones turn up I would be interested in them as well thanks Paul.
looks like a good find and hope Shaun is rewarded for the hard work he has ahead of him

Re: Paul's polishin' blog
Could you not use the panels off the L reg to bring the DTR Turbo back to life? That needs saving.

Re: Paul's polishin' blog
That's quite a stash you've discovered there Paul. Any chance of a splitter for my red 16v? That would be marvellous. I'll send you a PM..

I think the panels looked pretty straight on the DTR. Either way it looks like it'll be saved. I'll get some pics next time I'm up there and post them.Roverman wrote:Could you not use the panels off the L reg to bring the DTR Turbo back to life? That needs saving.
@ Mick - I'll keep my eye out for the stuff you're after but there weren't any window wind deflectors or I'd have spotted them! (there's a couple of sunroof ones though as well as the ones on the cars) The parts in the shed weren't just for diesel engined cars either - lots of petrol 'stuff' as well.
PMs sent to Matt and Todd
