Got one! Bx 17 TZD Estate

[jackytwoshoes]

After a while of looking and pondering various options, I finally got my hands on one!

Forum member Daisy kindly responded to my wanted add with info of a listing in her local paper, and what a cracker it is. It's a BX 17 TZD that's been very well looked after and although it has been to the moon and back and is suffering from some lacquer peel i reckon it'll make the perfect loveable workhorse. The vender was the perfect gent, it has to be said.

Et voila:



And he she is back home with the other members of my fleet:



The journey homeward went well and I've only got a couple of niggles- A clicky speedo will need to be looked at and I need to source some suitable wheel trims and front speaker grills. All in all, I'm very happy indeed.

Damn useful cars and still do not think there is a lot better out there.

That looks really nice.
And that X/19 bring back a lot of memories from when I had a lido.....wish I still had it.

Congratulations Jack, she looks great.
I'm glad everything worked out well for you regarding the car, hope to meet you both at the X-Rally next April

Welcome to the mad house of BX ownership. (I mean BX club ).

That colour of green is a nice one, especially on a BX. Before I got mine I was thinking of getting a green one, but out of the two I looked at, the one I bought was a better car.

Now the hunt is on for TZD wheel trims, good luck bud.
