Citroen BX 1.9 n/a TZD for sale- NOW SOLD

Post by halima99 »

Hiya guys, up for sale is my green citroen bx which I have owned for nearly a year, I bought this as a daily commute as i took on a project at work which inculded a daily commute of 30 miles, this car has been a fantastic runner never let me down and also great on diesel, my project is finnished so no need for 2 cars.
Over the past year I have had two new rear spheres and an accumulator also a complete fluid change, new stop solenoid fitted and always serviced with Total 10-40 s/synth oil.previous owner was a Christian Missionary worker who had the car for 9 years (she had the pipes done as well), clutch is fine, gearchange very smooth, engine still has a lot of flife left in it, has only done 112000 miles from new. It has 6 months tax and tested till July. Bodywork very good for age.
cambelt changed at 99k.
Bad bits

Rear electric windows dont work, Sunroof not working, has a slight scrape on n/s rear panel, coolant light flashes now and again but previous owner had been driving with this light on/off for years, at first I thought there might be a problem so I took rad out flushed complete system, might need bleeding properely. Rear exhaust rotted but new back box will be provided.

Overall a very reliable car, just needs a bit of money spending on it and it will last for years and will also appreciate in value. I would really like it to go to an enthusiast, thats why I am advertising it here first.

Price £ 375 ono NOW SOLD.

contact me on 07591140221

struggling with posting pictures, will have to e- mail them.

Based in Leeds.

Or did you mean to state 'I've Bought it' ?

If so, well done =D> if not :?

I'm fairly sure it won't be around for long just like the LAST-TIME it was available in June 2012 !

Good luck with the sale, 'Sal' !

I know 'Des' has just placed a new E-bay spot, however for continuity I thought it best to resurrect this thread !

Yeah, sorry. I did have a trawl in this section but I must've missed it. This still looks like a nice car and it's still looking for the right owner.

A word of caution - the owner has been posting up on Facebook of his problems with the car. Pressurisation of the cooling system, bubbles in the expansion tank, leaks from the radiator and a hose clip (presumably from the excess pressure?) The last I heard he was thinking of weighing it in...

If he ends up breaking it, i'll certainly be after some parts! Shame, it's a lovely looking car, odd to see a n/a TZD, all of them i've seen have been turbo's.

Well, it seems now he's decided to offload it on eBay without mentioning the problems. It was earlier this week that he was asking for advice on the BXC Facebook page, and now the thread appears to have been deleted! Andy (Mothman) commented on it too so it's not just me imagining things...

Yes, it has a blown HG so unless its for peanuts, dont go for it guys. I suspect it will be topped up with radweld or something similar.
