16 meteor for £150 on the tree of Gum

"Too good to scrap, I have a relatively low milege, citreon BX that has very good grey bodywork, and a plush velour black/grey interior. It was driven from twickenham to my address over a year ago, and I simply haven't had the time to do anything with it, so am offering the entire car, or reluctantly would break it for spares.Shall post some pics when I've taken some(not today as it doesn't stop raining, ugh)."

OK, so no tax/MOT - what else is wrong with it? :-k

There's obviously going to be more wrong with it, not because the seller's hiding something, but it's been sat around a while and it's a spares/repairs car.

That said, with 60k on the clock, and for just over scrap value it'd probably be a half decent buy. You can't really go wrong for £150 if you can do all the work yourself!

I am trying to get hold of this beast! No response so far on the tree of Gum so it may be a bit fishy.
However I am of like mind to you Kitch and of course 'if not as described' I am not bound to part with cash. As you well know these late petrols are actually quite well balanced and nice to drive even if without the extra go of a 16v or TD!. I also get similar economy to the '09 C4 and lower emmissions... :wink: with mine.
