AXrescuer Posted July 24, 2008 Posted July 24, 2008 Saw this on my way to the docs this morning. Bodywork's not perfect but still pretty solid for its age though it could do with a good cut/polish. The interior seemed to be pretty much spotless.

Timewaster Posted September 28, 2008 Posted September 28, 2008 ^^MODS, PLEASE REMOVE THIS JOKER^^Either I am missing the point here (something that happens quite often) or the offensive post has already gone and now it looks like you are not happy with VWpowered's view on crumbly Fiats.

MrRegieRitmo Posted September 28, 2008 Posted September 28, 2008 ^^THANK YOU!^^ You seem very grateful for a compliment about a car you don't even own!
AXrescuer Posted September 29, 2008 Author Posted September 29, 2008 ^^THANK YOU!^^ You seem very grateful for a compliment about a car you don't even own! I'm like that! Actually I was thanking whoever got rid of the porn peddler!
AXrescuer Posted January 2, 2009 Author Posted January 2, 2009 Spotted in Stevenage actually. Saw this beauty at ASDA earlier today! Metrotastic!
andrew e Posted January 2, 2009 Posted January 2, 2009 Uber rare with the biege leather I might just link it!
ayd Posted January 2, 2009 Posted January 2, 2009 man I remember having to clean those alloys, Toothbrush in hand.....
AXrescuer Posted January 3, 2009 Author Posted January 3, 2009 I was quite surprised by how good the bodywork was. Not sure about the tan leather though.
Father Ted Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 Looking at it I would sa the suspension has been recently pumped up too as it looks a little highter than you nermally see them.
Dukestar25 Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 Spotted in Stevenage actually. Saw this beauty at ASDA earlier today! Metrotastic! What a shame he didn't finish the look with a FULL set of MG alloys still a tasty motor though
andrew e Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 I'm sure they were optional as "Austin caped" ones on the VDP.
outlaw118 Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 Is that a VP500? I'm sure the Pog will know, seeing as he luuurrrves Metros!!
pogweasel Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 Good job I went to St. Evenage the day before then. I wouldn't have been able to contain my "joy" if I spotted that road-turd.
Dukestar25 Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 I'm sure they were optional as "Austin caped" ones on the VDP. I see what you mean. None of the VDP's up here seemed to wear these wheels, only ever seen them on the MG's. Wouldn't you think they'd have put the VDP badge in the middle instead of the povvy fodder badge and perhaps a bit of faux chrome round the edge like they did with Maestro, Montego etc ?
AXrescuer Posted February 1, 2009 Author Posted February 1, 2009 A couple of spots at Asda in Stevenage. BX Gti Somewhat scruffy Primera Estate. Only posting as I've never seen one before!
Mash Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 Is that a VP500? I'm sure the Pog will know, seeing as he luuurrrves Metros!!Nope, just a high spec one. The VP500s were all 3-doors with the earlier pepperpot alloys and special script on rear quarter:
AXrescuer Posted February 25, 2009 Author Posted February 25, 2009 My eyes were stung by a nightmarish scribble of blue and chrome this morning. It truly was 'orrible. I would've taken more pictures but the nausea and sudden onset of a migraine proved too much for me. Just as well I was on my way to a hospital appointment!
michiel Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 God. What's the yellow thing behind the blue blob, something like an RX-7 or a Starion?
AXrescuer Posted February 25, 2009 Author Posted February 25, 2009 I don't know what that is, I'll try and have a look later.
j-j Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 A couple of spots at Asda in Stevenage. BX Gti Very nice, but it looks like its been driven at full suspension height. I could understand doing that in a french field, but at asda?-looks like they've left the little height selector up one notch. It'll go higher than that! Yonks ago when I was begging my Dad to replace his Mk3 Cavalier with a 3 year old Xantia, the Citroen dealer described the height control lever as being "idiot proof" ..... I'm thinking not..
dollywobbler Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 I have seen BXs driving along on full height before now. Bouncy!! I only ever did that myself when fording. Simply raise the car above the water. Excellent!
mouseflakes Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 Could be an old giffer using the height control to ease entry and exit from the vehicle? Bit like those tall armchairs Dame Thora Hurd used to advertise (filling in time between stints for Stannah).I do the same when parking the XM to avoid scraping the door bottoms on the high kerbs round our way.

AXrescuer Posted March 10, 2009 Author Posted March 10, 2009 More shite at ASDA in Stevenage. This was pretty clean apart from the dent on the front wing.
AXrescuer Posted April 4, 2009 Author Posted April 4, 2009 Spotted this little cracker in Welwyn Garden City's town centre this afternoon.
