OMG! M40 Motorway Sunbeam Rapier / Citroen BX combo shocker!

[The Reverend Bluejeans]

I have an article/report somewhere, that was published just after the Chrysler Europe operation was sold to Peugeot.

 

It starts with Rootes presenting their new American masters with the brand new Arrow range.

 

The response from the Chrysler Execs was - Gentlemen, it's already obsolete. Oh dear.

Hence the Avenger!

am I a peasant if I say I prefer the BX?

 

I had a 1.9 Tzd estate - M reg one of ther very last ones ever registered - best car I ever owned - ever

No, I quite agree. I like Bumseams, but BXs are brill. Currently hoping that Cavette is going to come back to the world of BXs...

I have a suspicion Cavmad may just do that - I would like to be in that place too - but I have too many cars

HP Cits FTW.

 

I always used to take a spare BX with me when driving the Xantia.....

I had that picture glued inside the front cover of my Xantia Haynes manual.

Must be my old manual then that I got shut of when I got rid of Mandy.

This is highly possible, once I have sussed storage out anyhow. Got shut of loads of tat out of the garage but still need to fit a BX estate, a scooter and a few other bits of crap into a lock up.

 

Funny really as the BX in question was one of my favourites and obviously didn't wander too far when I sold it on. Reg plate also my kid's initials.
