Hence the D in TGD, obviously. Duh. It's been a long day!

It has to be said, that's top money for a basic spec car.

It does look in top condition though, so might be worth more-than-average. £500 strikes me as a tad on the expensive side though.

Very low mileage though so worth the money.

well worth the money looks straight and original i'd have it but again have too much going on at the end of the month

my dad had a 17tgd H121 HMO

as a company car and it used tow a waitrose box trailer and take us on holiday as kids used to wash it every week

How does that work then? Not that it's not a nice car or anything (because it sure looks like it is) but just because the mileage is right doesn't neccessarily make it worth the coin. As lovely as it is I doubt the price is realistic.

i see your point but there was a 16 tgs auto at the national went for £1200 and that was low mileage and original. theres not many cars for £500 that offer low mileage and originalty though is it that a gti gear knob? the bx is slowly but surely getting some recognition especially know matt h got his bx in practical classics i predict that the bx will be the next gs/a of the classic world

BXs are indeed getting the recognition they rightly dserve now and I will repeat that car looks a nice example.
However one £1500 petrol BX and a magazine feature on them doesn't mean an overnight price hike.
Only about 12 months or so back I struggled like hell to sell a BX16 with less than 40,000 genuine miles on the clock for a fair bit under £400.
Diesels have actually lost a little of their appeal now too due to high fuel costs and scrap prices are bottoming out for a while.
As I say it's not a slur on the seller or his car, and he might well get his asking price or more for it, but a touch of realism helps.

Thanks for all your comments, the car is original and £500 is not set in stone!! i am flexible. But not in a mega hurry to sell it as its not going to make me rich..

If it requires zero work on it, its worth the money, good luck with your sale. If it has a bosch pump, then thats worth mentioning
