Thought some of you might be interested in seeing my latest purchase, a 93 Citroen BX 1.9 diesel It's only my second car (the Mini being the first obviously) and I fancied getting something a bit different to the Mini, but that's still quirky and interesting (in my opinion anyway) and with the added bonus of being able to get 50-60mpg whilst cruising around very comfortably - a far cry from the harshness of the Mini.
It's had lots of work done recently, including just having its MOT done this past week (which cost the previous owner £350 to get done ) so I'm pretty pleased at picking it up for only £425 There are lots of little niggly things that are wrong with it (including a bit of rust!) but it drives really nicely and almost everything works properly.
I bought it with a set of roof bars already fitted, but seeing as I'm not going to be carrying anything big around in the near future, I took them off straight away after we got it home, so the next two pics show the car as I got it, and then without the bars.
I won't be doing too much to it really, just fixing all the little broken things first, so there won't be many updates and they'll probably be quite boring, but if anyone is interested in funny old French cars with magic suspension then keep an eye on this
