I will regret this but it is time for something new.
My beloved BX leader - in what can only be described as lovely, unrestored and totally charming condition. The only work has been maintenance, this car hasn't been ripped apart and welded to death. As you can see from the photos it is in amazing survivor condition. The only mod is a modern radio, for which I have a period Clarion to replace it.
Original dealer number plates front AND rear, and original etched glass
The 1400cc suitcase engine provides just enough power and no more, but in my opinion it makes the car all the better. Excellent steering and amazing brakes accompany the underwhelming performance.
Being the base model it has no equipment to speak of;
only one internal light
manual choke
no PAS
no central locking
two speakers
no rear wiper
Manual window winders
It even has its original manual choke.
Work completed;
New clutch
new clutch cable
speedo cable (both parts)
new spheres all round and LMH
new tyres - Michelin, including the spare
