My TXD

Post by tim leech »

Anyone after a good useable K plate 19 n/a Bx TXD, 11 months mot with history and new tyres on 16v wheels. Body good with no rust, would benefit from painting the spoiler and bumper corners. Tax until end of February, must go to bx enthusiast only please. drives lovely. Only downside is the resistors on the blink.

Has both original keys all owners/service book and 4 proper bx mudflaps!

Owes me £300 so that what I want for it.

Because you could get fridges, cookers, motorbikes, huge collections of car parts, footballs, football teams, most of the content of your shed, Xantia interiors and most importantly ladies in the back of it AND still have a modern, classic, style icon of a car capable of doing everything your hatchback does and even more.

Agreed, I still haven`t found a lady who`s happy to be kept in the back of an old Citroen with just a rusty old RD200 for company :lol:

Yes indeedee RD200, though in the case of mine I believe RD stands for Rusty (&) Dented. It`s sitting here all folorn and awaits an uncertain fate. Only the thought of restoring it just to rev the t*ts off it and annoy my neighbours is keeping me going but you can just bet it`ll never happen. Can`t bring myself to scrap it though.

Back to the topic....I`m sure someone will buy your BX. eBay probably best but have you tried whatever Andyspares morphed into?

Dont rush yet. I passed the photo on to a friend of mine, who seemed quite impressed. He's not the sort of bloke to be rushed but I think we might be in with a chance yet. I see him in a couple of days, give him time to think about it.
