Changes at work mean that one car is hardly an option, let alone two.
Obviously the usual offering it here first, then on to Ebay.
As some of you know the car, this might be repetitive, but here goes.
1993 L Citroen BX TZD turbo estate, red. 305752 miles. MOT 21 Oct 2013, Tax 31 May 2013. Car is located in central
Manchester, close to rail and motorway networks. I'd like £500 for it, but understand the mileage will put people off a bit?

I've owned it for the last 3 years, before that it was owned by Geoff (who is a sometime user of this forum too).
Geoff had a lot of work done on it, including a replacement engine. The engine milage is
more like 200000 from my reckoning. It starts, drives and stops like you'd expect. It's transported me all over the place from Scotland to Berlin, Spain, France etc etc.
It had two problems at last MOT - emissions, a good blast around a clean out, no problem (and seemingly now a lot less smoky),
and rear half of exhaust had reached end of useful life, replaced. It always gets a mention from anyone who works on it how clean
it is underneath. It has had regular oil and filter changes.
Good bits:
General condition is really good, no massive rusty patches or dents. Interior
is clean and tidy.
Lots of bits and bobs done on it recently -
Starter motor
Tyres (less than 500 miles on the fronts)
'Stat and 'stat housing
About half the exhaust
Wheel bearing, ball joint, pads, calipers
Windscreens front and rear (and no rust found underneath)
LHM change
Hydraulic pipes replaced
New battery
All four electric windows work (passenger front in a little slow sometimes)
Central locking works
4 Speedlines plus decent spare
Timing belt, water pump and tensioner done at 275532 miles
Kenwood CD player. I've also replaced the speakers all round (not saying they'll reproduce
bass incredibly well, but better than what was in there).
Two sets of keys.
Piles of invoices for the last ten years, nice and easy to see when things were done.
Worse bits:
Cosmetically not perfect, various small scratches, some thin bits of paint and delamination on
boot lid and small patch on roof.
Slight oil leak from rocker gasket, although this seems to be pretty much sorted now, rarely have
to top up.
Front struts are a bit creaky, only noticed this when car is rising. I've kept them well lubed and this
keeps them quiet for a few months.
Parcel shelf brackets are cracked/missing. It still holds up, but is a bit temperamental.
Glovebox has been repaired, it works but if a spare was located it would work better.
Small hole in drivers door seal. Temp fix with silicone.
Small mark on dashboard (looks like someone has had something glued to it at some point?)
So that's it, sorry for the full dissertation, I'm sure there's more to add. Nothing to hide, come and have a look, etc etc.
See my blog for a load of photographs I've just taken.
Cheers
Martin
