White Diesel Estate eBay

Seems a reasonable example. Wrong spec and colour as far as I'm concerned, but that's just me... :)

AHEM! As I just so happen to own the very same version of this car in the very same colour I demand you take that back Chidlow or Essex will be the first point of my southern invasion. BB, warm up the jellied eel bombs, we`re heading south :lol:

As Tim says that`s a hell of a lot of car for the money and well worth it too. Long MOT, nice looking car and what seems a fair and honest description plus the versatility of an estate, a brilliant engine and cheapness to run makes it a good buy I reckon.

Is the Peterborough one a re-list, as I can remember seeing another estate from Peterborough on ebay a while ago, pictures seem familiar, that's all.

Must admit, if I had time, money and space, I'd be interested, I love estates

No offence intended Billy, besides you've pimped your ride so that's a different kettle of beans :D White isn't my favourite thats all - and no air con. Unlike velosolex50's recent purchase. Lucky bl**der. Welcome to the Club BTW :lol:

Baering in mind it`s in Peterborough, I wonder if it`s the same Peter Simpson that used to work for Practical Classics?

*EDIT*: No offence taken Philip, I was only joking :lol:

So there you have it. I hope this finds a good home, it certainly looks a nice bet and the description is superb - Im quite tempted myself, though I suspect that Mrs R will have something to say if I turn up with another Citroen :roll:

Small world! Practical Classics was at it`s best when Peter was in charge i.m.h.o, bought it for the first time in ages a couple of months ago and forgot how much I used to enjoy it. Be nice to see a feature on the BX in there as there does seem to be slightly more modern classics in it nowadays.

Agreed with Billy, they do value the 16v in the price guide which is a good start!
