Hiya all. I have finally signed up - as a fairly active member of the BX Club forum, I thought it time to spread my wings a little. This is mainly because I now have a ZX too!
I owned my first BX in 1993 (a GTi) and after a period of Citroen starvation finally returned to the fold with a '74 GSX when I lived in France, 2001-2003. Haven't looked back since! I've had a Visa GTi (with 8v 1.9 GTI engine ) and - let me see... a BX GTi auto, BX GTi (chipped ), another GTi auto, another couple of GTi's (I like them ), a BX TXD Estate (my first diesel), a BX 16TGS auto, a ZX Aura turbo-D, a BX 19TRS...
...and now, a 1991 BX 16 valve and a 1995 ZX Volcane turbo-D (more about them later).

Thanks. I thought I'd post some pictures, (anyone from the BX forum will have seen these before, bear with me!), finishing with pics of my current fleetette.

Sadly not. The day after I got it all fixed up we took it out and a 19-yr old student in an Uno pulled straight out in front of us on a deserted French main road and it was a write off. Luckily we were all shaken but not hurt.andmcit wrote:Love that Orange GS - pic looks like it's straight out of a brochure.
Is it still alive now today? Hope so...
