Hmm, can anyone figure this one out?

Tell us about BXs you have spotted on the road, or BXs/parts spotted for sale including eBay finds.

Ebay BX, but how much is it? He says price is £350, £250 secures the car and according to the only question he`s received the `buy-it-now` price is £400. :?

Mmm, good point, if you require pictures he can send you some :? why not put them on the listing then. :evil:

Might be time to stay clear of ebay BXs me thinks, there not too many good ones around these days and a lot of dodgy sellers.

I think the best bet is to try and view first, as early in the listing as possible. Not always possible of course as they always seem to be miles from where you live but it`s usually best. One thing I will say though is that I`ve bought quite a few cars off eBay and most of them have not really been completely truthful. However the price has been so ridiculously cheap for most of them I didn`t care.

Looks like another of those turbo 1.9s that dont have a turbo as well, some TZDs must have been sold with the NA 1.9 motor, i once travelled 60 miles to look at a TZD turbo, the owner swore blind it had a turbo until he looked under my bonnet, this seller seems a little shy though.

This one is a 19TZD, so its a n/a 19 diesel with a top level trim, electric windows all round etc.
Scrapped one of these last year.

EBAY cars,

My 19tzd was sold to me as all ok, forgetting to mention the bollocksed clutch and anti roll bars! One the up side the bodys nice and the interiors lovely.

I bought two cars off eBay - one owned by a Citroen Enthusiast - hmmmm, One is now a source of spares and steady income/entertainment for Mr. B - the other one I was lucky to get a ton for when I sold it to some other poor sod.
