DTR MK1 Anyone?

Looks servicable, but with potential rust issues. Rather like it with the body stripe stickers, in fact rather like it full stop!

Depending on how much it goes for, I may have a bid for this - the astra has developed a very large exhaust blow today, so is really undrivable, and i've lost faith with it again, so it may yet be sold.

Good spot Tom. Looks lovely and with minimal bodywork to sort. 2012 is the year of the BX it seems. :)

Its a nice old girl, but I still say that Mk1's need a bit of cosetting now and a Mk2 TD would be a better daily drive.

Of course I shall be having a bid! lol

O/T. sorry, but I saw a green TZi estate on a K plate drive past me at the weekend. Was quite fleeting, but looked and sounded good, in fact I would say it sounded like an auto. I want that to come up for sale one day! :)

Up to 400 quid with nearly 6 days to go. If the owner thought he was only going to make a few bob on his old Citroen, he might be in for a surprise. Could go to 4 figures?

Exactly, I cant remember that last nice (and this is a nice car asides a few small jobs) Mk1 was offered for sale, plus the more it fetches it will sooth my aching wallet from being raped by my DTR rebuild!

Edit - just remembered another one, so 7...
