BX 1.9 GTI Huricane Black
Hi every, I was the person who bought this car on ebay it is as good as it looked in the photos and drives superb, Patrick Rugg's description was spot on. I would like to take the car up to the ICCCR but I had already booked in our CX so I am trying to persuade my wife to drive it there, but its a long way from Suffolk and she would rather sit back and be a passenger. I've no takers from mates as yet, if I don't manage to ge it there I will have to bribe her to drive it to the X Rally next year.

Welcome to the club Dave,
Thats a cracking BX you have there and the envy of many people on here.
Would be great to see it at a show or three.

Re: BX 1.9 GTI Huricane Black
Hi Vince, Thanks for the welcome, the BX is a cracking car it's done 80,000 and is like new inside. It is unmarked outside, I have owned a number of BX's in the 1980's and 90's and loved everyone of them and after seeing all the fine examples at the X Rally this year I decided to look for one. I recently sold a 1957 2CV Riple Bonet so I had a space in my garage. The other Citroens I have are a Mk 1 CX Prestige and my daily drive is a C3 HDI. I hope to get the BX to some shows this year, are you going to the ICCCR I hope to meet some other bx owners there?
Regards
Dave
Regards
Dave

Dear Dave.
I am so really pleased for you Dave, and that she in such good condition aswell The 1.9 GTi is a lovely model to have Dave Very nice BX,s are getting
very difficult to find these days Dave, so well done 80k still, very low, only just run-
in
In the 90,s I was looking at buying a very nice white BX leader
One of my favourites then Dave, mk 1 CX and a prestige aswell, very nice
indeed
Sadly Dave, I won,t be able to get to York, as it is a little too far for me, I think the
weather will be great by then and the grounds will be fine for a great show
All The Best Dave.

Re: BX 1.9 GTI Huricane Black
There's a fair number of us going to the ICCCR Dave - thread 'stickied' at the top of the Events section if you haven't seen it already.
Mr Leech of this parish is trying to get a line up of one BX from each year, I'm sure your new acquisition would be a strong contender for that!
