Very annoying day - just killed my nearside front Speedline in an huge pothole at speed...

Anyone got 1 or 2 silver 5.5J Speedlines in the Stroud / Bristol area? Willing to travel too

thanks

Good luck in finding some. I have been trying to get 2 for months now.

Could you sue the council for damage to your car?

Are you ok for rims in the meantime? - I have a couple of steelies I could lend you for a while if needed

Yes, thanks Mike - I'm OK for now and although it's a noticeable dent the tyre survived intact... Drove past the hole today several times trying to get a good, photo for a claim... It's in a hidden bit of the A46 - motorway speeds for some cars on there... I think I'll swap all the wheels for a spare set this week and look into getting the dented ones straightened unless I can find any good 5.5 speedlines.

really? wrote:Hi all, Picked this car up some months ago, starts, runs but uses copious amounts of lhm from returns.

Have problems with other cars and have not been able to do anything about rebuilding this BX, so am now going to pass it on to an enthusiast through the club. It cost us £100 for transport to Oxford and am only looking for the £100 it cost to move.

The only things I have done are basically pressure wash underneath to take a good look and it is a very solid little car with surface rust in the usual places nothing rotten, it will be sold with the original 5.5j speedlines which need new tyres, in as original condition, goes up and down needs spheres.

Very easy to start can be driven onto transporter. Easy restoration, just have too many cars at the moment.

Viewing welcome.
