All in the eye of the beholder Mick

I'm not a fan - the front end is ugly and revolting, to my eyes at least, beyond comprehension... It looks angry. Sorry...

Colour does it no favours either...

Maybe more to your taste Jim, and relatively cheap but too big I know, mind you optional sunglasses may be required!

Yes, that's better Mick although as usual, I'd prefer a Series 1

The colour is very appealing

They are a funny thing aren't they!? I think this bit (in blue) has a hint of the DS's sleek space ship about it, just the roofline and the front end seemed to be designed by someone else entirely!

Rather lovely and could be a bit of a 'steal'* for the lucky bidder

If you win that you'll have to buy your girlfriend a mink stole to ride in it!

Indeed, they are, very much so... It would be interesting to compare a good BX against every other hydraulic Citroen... My jury is out on which might come out the most 'magic carpet'...

Had one of those in red turned pink. Excellent ride and tons of space.

Had two, an estate and the 16V which necessarily had a firmer ride but I'd say my series 1 C5s had a better ride than the estate which I believe was a TRE or similar letters, petrol though!

These prices amaze me, back when I was trading traders would have struggled to get a couple of hundred quid for that regardless of its condition.
