1990 4x4 GTi Hatchback - White, For Sale (On E- Bay)

Post by RxBX »

As title listing, H653 XYV spotted on E-BAY , a bit of weird advert as its an auction type listing for 'Citroen BX 4x4 GTI - Bolt' !

Why didn't they just list it as a 'classified Ad' with an actual price or a normal auction listing for the whole car ?
E-bay Seller wrote:This very rare classic car has covered 190000 miles and is in full running order with 6 plus months MOTand is taxed until end of November. Has tow bar for bike carrier.

It has no oil leaks as all seals have been replaced as needed. Oils have been changed regularly hence original transfer box is perfect and rear drive is perfect. Has new OEM exhaust, 16V discs and new calipers last year and ABS works. Center prop shaft bearing also replaced last year. Clutch is about 60% worn and was properly replaced at at 130000 miles. Headgasket and valve seals were done at 160000 miles. Car has never been used by smoker or had dogs in it. Wheels are from Peugeot 205 and run 205 50 section NEXAN tyres that are about 50 % worn. Were refurbished not long ago and space saver was new 18 months ago.

However there is rust hole at bottom of windscreen and the box section below also has 2 inch round inch hole so will need welding / repair as will the hole in rear pillar. Dont think it affects MOT and ideal if you a have a spare BX to cut out sections needed.

There are only about 12 left in UK so offers reflecting the cars rarity and spares value alone are invited for the car. You are welcome to see and test it as used daily.

The auction is for a used bolt---- so if you bid you will receive only this.

Car in Horsham Sussex - call Leo on 07979 621223 or 01403 733599 to discuss.

Fantastic roadholding -- never stopped in snow.

A con to try and avoid Ebay fees. Looks ropey but is that a centre arm-rest I spy?!

Typical 4x4 with a completely twisted and 'rotten-in-the-corners' shell i reckon. Shame Citroen didn't know much about 4x4's or they might have stiffened the chassis a bit. I'd bet the top of both A-pillars by the window are crunchy if not holed!

And the C pillars by the look of it, I've never seen a BX rot there before.
