Re turbo edith????
Alex mate, you're flying low in the CV add.
He got a bit excited while filming and forgot to zip up.
DON’T put the suspension at the lowest setting to drive her! We owned one and the owners manual really did stress this!! 😮👍👍
I love Edith! Desperately wanna take my Mk1 Saxo VTS to France 🇫🇷🇫🇷
Let's accept that this is not a car but an entertainment channel. Congrats Alex and the team!
It's the inter-personal and inter-car blend that makes it a thing..
Like old Top Gear, only with shit boxes, Shit Gear :D
Car entertainment channel?
Is this the fabeled Bottom Gear?@@Mad.player
Agreed I knew people who wernt into cars but loved top gear for the comedy. Alex is doing the same. Awesome
Considering she's a classic and there aren't many BX's left, why don't you three awesome blokes consider doing a series on restoring her? I'm sure we'd all love it ❤
Also there are a few good people on TH-cam/ the web who are good with these upndown and the bx project come to mind.
I'm sure that they would fix up the BX.
If they weren't far too busy acting like 10yr old boys on a school trip. Just to make folk like myself laugh 🤣
The engine in mine blew up in 1998.
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
why@@bastogne315
There is not a single man on the planet who did not burst out laughing when Alex blew the radiator and all the dirty fluid flew out 😂
Taylor laughing his tits off makes it 10x funnier😂😂
@@sebvds8366yeah🤣
I didn't laugh at all... I nearly lost a lung😂
That whole bit got me on the seek bar back several times 😂😊
@@skylined5534 seek bar back?
Genuinely the best car channel on TH-cam.
It must feel epic knowing the channels spending MASSIVE budgets are not a patch in you guys.
Currently stuck in a hospital ward, been here since Monday, and seriously facing the shitest new years in my life. However THIS video has had me and my fellow ward mates literally belly laughing so loud, the doctors in the ward next door had to come in and shut us all up!
The scene with the radiator fountain may just be the funniest thing I have ever experienced in my 42 years!
Thank you guys so much for all the entertainment this year, and bring on 2024!!!
Good luck for 2024! And hope you get out the hospital soon ❤
What's also funny is they drove this car with barely any coolant in the cylinder head.
Because the head is higher than the radiator, there is a second bleed screw on the thermostat housing (just below the intake pipe) and every time the radiator has to be refilled, you bleed the rad, then bleed the thermostat.
@@AutoalexCars thanks Alex and team!
You arent even allowed to laugh in hospital? Like they go out of their way to be miserable
Get well soon bud
Can’t beat an old French car for bangernomics. My £450 406 is still going two years and 30k miles after I picked it up. Very solid cars.
French cars are for pooftahs.
Real men drive trucks with 7.4 liters of displacement
I agree my £150 Clio is the most reliable car I've ever owned 3 years nearly 40k miles and never gone wrong, and I've spent about £40 on it in that time 😂
The 406 is in its own league, a different kind of beast. £450 is a bargain, we had 2 in the family purchased for £3000 and £4000. One of them is still driving around somewhere in Eastern Europe 10 years later :D
I bought my 406 3 years old with 90k miles for £1800. 10 years later it was traded in and got £400 back. Totally reliable with standard maintenance.
My Peugeot 205 diesel was €200 and had 350,000kms on the clock when I bought it, I then drove it to Italy, to go and see the F1 at Imola, and back via Switzerland, France, Germany, Luxembourg, Belgium, and the Netherlands back to the U.K. with 3 mates and a boot full of beer and wine, the car is still going strong today.
You boys have really such a great chemistry and each episode like this feels like we're on a lads trip with you. Taylor's humour is infectious and Rory's editing just makes it feel so natural. Props to you Alex for making the leap with your channel, appreciating how well you guys work together and for looking after the other two (Rory's Jaaaaaaag and Taylor's Mini engine etc.).
Favourite TH-cam channel these days!
Couldn't have put it better Dan, these roadtrips feel like the kind of trips I would do with my mates if we had a) the time and b) some spare cash and c) our wives' approval...
Hats off to whoever filmed the ad read (presumably Rory) for not noticing, or more likely not telling Alex that his fly was open the entire time
Crotch Watch.
that is f*cking hilarious tho ..
I’m honoured to have passed this amazing vehicle to you Alex. Is the addiction setting in yet?
What a gift. Your a legend mate
@@flipacoin3593 thanks for sharing that. I love hearing people’s Bx stories
@@Road2Rust I was never very keen on French cars - the sort of Airfix kit build quality always put me off although I was subsequently partially converted by a friend who owned (for a long time - about a decade) a Citroen CX 2.5T Prestige and a smaller one, I can't recall the model except to say it was white with a wonderfully period brown interior and a charming, distinctive and quite peppy little horizontally opposed I think 1.2 litre engine.... I don't recall the year for either but I did at least 3 or 4 quite long trips in the CX (which now I think about it, could well have been an E reg - 1987?) and in fairness, despite its approaching 170000 miles, seemed to have retained full possession of every single one of the 168horses which they were apparently delivered with brand new. The enormously spacious rear used to make me snigger, primarily due to the immensely louche and camp quilted black leather back seat - but also the copious leg room. I believe French presidents of the era were ferried in them and it's not hard to imagine someone like Giscard-d'Estaing or Chirac rolling around back there with their mistress after a light lunch in the countryside!!
My piano teacher in the 1980s had several Renault 4s which I'm sure had a sort of wrist action gearshift sprouting from the dashboard but I may be mistaken - and a fling of mine around 1990 had a white 1.7litre Renault 5 which let him down on Fulham Bridge when the clutch cable snapped.
My parents stringently avoided them, instead maintaining a pointedly Swedish and German policy - my absolute earliest memories are of my mother's backfiring NSU - I was then far too young to understand her joke about non-specific urethritis. She subsequently had several Beetles and I think 3 Golfs, terminating in a 1989 GTi just before the big bumper version of that came out. For school trunks my dad had several Volvo Estates but after my brother and I had finished with all that, they were quickly replaced with a veritable string of BMWs, noticeably because of a tax-free - and heavily discounted - perk thanks to a minor diplomatic position which allowed for one car per year - meaning that 6 months after taking delivery, he could go order the next one from Park Lane (the only outlet which handled that type of sale) because they took a reliable 6 months to come from the Factory, this meaning he'd catch it exactly 12 months later, confirming to the letter of the rules - and being the 90s, were the halcyon days where even a 5 series Touring - never mind X5s - were not available for love, money or your first born child - and this commanded insane resale values. I think to preserve the appearance of at least a MODICUM of decency, however, they used to ask him oh so politely, if he wouldn't mind awfully disposing of the "old" one separately simply to avoid the potential embarrassment that the value of the by-then one year old, sub 10000 mile and admittedly as good as new, never thrashed, fully UK (not grey import) garaged car, was substantially more than the price of the brand new one that was lined up!!!😂
I digress, apologies ❤ My only other brushes with anything French (in the automotive sense, I should add - I make no such claims concerning the human encounters 🤭😎) was someone in my year's father had a Renault 25 V6 which I would sometimes see when, as a day boy, his dad would drop him off each morning and you could hear the slow throb of its motor and the slur of the gearshifts at a maximum of about 1800rpm cos of the typical dad driving! There were some friends of the Headmaster near Aix-en-Provence who each year would take a pupil who wanted to do a French exchange. It was a couple with two sons, the younger of which, Bertrand, was my age. I recall zooming around on the back of his tiny scooter which even as skinny 15 year olds, with 2 of us on it used to struggle a bit with the hilly terrain - one of my favourite phrases I learned that summer was "Je sens la moteur"😆 Anyway, his parents had some fairly ancient Renault 18 - or 16? It was bright yellow and thus duly christened by me as "La Poubelle Jaune" Although Bertrand's mum laughed, to this day I can't quite work out if she genuinely found it amusing - or was otherwise merely being an extremely polite hostess and was actually deeply offended by my cocky, thoughtless and wholly inappropriate rudeness🤔🫣🤗
More innocent times - anyhoo, the least I can do I guess is now go and have a look at your channel🤓❤️
My friends mum had a BX in the 90s. Used to love watching the rear suspension going up when she started it up to take us home from school.
And watching her drop it 🫡
@@user-dj1js9oh5g that’s a different memory mate haha
She had a lovely rear end then?
hope the front suspension went up as well😁😁
I couldn't tell if they were saying BX, Dx, or VX
i honestly dont know how you guys keep getting better. the chemistry between you all is incredible and makes for the best entertainment on the internet! Roll on 2024, you guys are going to smash it!
❤
Very nostalgic. My dad had one when I was a kid and it was a great tow car. Would love to see a video of you guys restoring it to its former glory
Same here :) . drove it a bit as a teen and tbh enjoyed it. That self levelling was fantastic with the caravan!
Exactly what I needed for the evening. Swear down, Taylor’s laugh is infectious. Great work and honestly, I wish you all the best and Happy New Year to you and the crew❤
This is the reason I LOVE autoalex, the must unserious youtube channel there is. Just imagine being stuck in the queue for the euro tunnel amid strikes and these plonkers are launching coolant out their radiator.
I’ve got a 1993 TZD Turbo hatchback that’s stood the test of time. One owner from new until 2021 and looks, drives and smells like new! Love driving it.
My dad had a grey BX estate 1.9 petrol in the early 90s, F152 OJM. I loved it. After his previous Montego, it seemed like a spaceship.
Seeing Edith brought back lots of memories of going away on holiday and stuff. Nice one
One of these scared the s**t out of me years ago. I was parked beside a BX hatch and noticed one of its tyres was very soft. I started writing a note on a piece of paper to tuck under the wiper to let the owner know. I didn't notice they'd got into the car while I was getting the pen from my car. The owner started the car and the suspension raised up. I'd never screamed like that before or since.
username checks out
@@BlackLines I remember hearing about it before Christmas last year. Maybe little vlad should have got Diaper Don to hook him up.
Learned to drive in one of those great motor!!
Bought one of the last non Turbo BX's (K39WCW). Probably one of the best cars I have ever owned. 117000 miles in 6 years and apart from consumables didn't cost a penny. 50+ mpg and made short work of the 750 miles trip to the Dordogne twice a year with no problems!
Let's just appreciate how much more comfortable Taylor is on camera from his first video on this channel. He's blossomed, and I think it's magnificent!
I used to run a Citroen Synergie MPV wirh the same 1.9 diesel engine, back when Aldi used to sell veg oil for 39p a litre. We could drive across the country with 3 kids, the dog and all our camping gear in it for the price of a Big Mac meal...with the same smell wafting behind us! We did nearly 60,000 happy miles on cooking oil and the engine always ran like a charm. Best diesel engine ever. I'd have it back tomorrow.
I still driving one every day but it does have a turbo only done 245000 almost run in now
You lads have quickly become my favourite automotive content on TH-cam!
We bought a Mazda for £400 at auction and drove from Bradford to the Le Man's via a stay in Paris, avoiding Tolls we used a lot of back roads.
After the race , the next day we drove to Normandy to visit the D Day landings, we had to rush to get our Euro Star back to the UK , averaging well over 70 mph all the way .
Drove to Wigan to pick up our dog and drove home. The car never missed a beat and we used it for 2 more years.
Had to scrap because Mazda's of this age rusted terribly and we couldn't get it thru the MOT. So we got a £400 to run every day for 3 years. With no expense other than 2 tyres
If you bought it in Wigan, and it lasted 3 years, it was probably 2 cars welded together!
@@mrlister2000haha
I remember my dad had one of these in the late 90s that he’d drive from Derby to Glasgow via Birkenhead to pick me up in every other week, great fun when it rose when the engine started. Love it! I’ve also been waiting for this video since the instagram posts! Brilliant!
That was one of the funniest and most entertaining episodes ever. I loughed for minutes. Thanks guys and all the best for 2024.
This car shares very similar parts to the Peugeot 405. So if you need any parts you could probably get parts off 405s. Also those 1.9XUDs are proper reliable. Especially the non turbos.
My dad had an Citroen Berlingo 1.9 first production year with the XUD. The damn thing whent past 700 000km before he scraped it.
@@Gravstein what year because I have a 1.8 XUD in my 205 from 95
Taylor being part of the AutoAlex gang is a stroke of genius. the man never fails to make everyone giggle. Might want to give your jacket a wipe though chief, a suspect shoulder stain once seen cannot be unseen haha!
What a LEGENDARY episode fr that coolant scene will go down in Autoalex history!!
AAAAY thank you for the ❤️ guys!
Greetings from Germany and have a wonderful new years!
I had a 1988 BX 16RS. Loved it. Brilliant roadtrip car. Very comfortable but not quick. 65hp ain't much but it works.
Actually burst out laughing at the transition to being in France. Well done gents haha!
Absolute carnage! Best Christmas special video ever, really put a smile on my face after facing the most miserable month ever of sickness and downs in life!
What a fabulous car. My first car was a BX 1.9 diesel, loved it.
Did over 300k in it never let me down. I still remember the Reg E469MOR.
My dad's was E609 PWW. 1.9D same colour as this one. Dad says it was at about 270,000+ when sold on. Fond memories holidaying to France driving us all from North Yorkshire.
My dad's was D760vnl. I remember him getting it over 100 going down an extremely long hill. It died when the handbrake gave up parked on a steep drive and it smashed its way through a gate and onto the street, written off for destroyed rear quarter.
Christmas has been shite work has been shite but I found you lot to cheer my day up. Thank you x
Edith Piaf is the one you´re looking for. Truly inspirational, considering the song means `I regret nothing`. Excellent video so far!
Back in the 90s if you went into a scrapyard one of the first things that always disappeared on these were the front callipers because at a time when everything had rear drums unless very high performance or expensive, bx calipers were in high demand for rear disc conversions on your high performance project, why? Because the bx handbrake worked on the front wheels!!! so was about the only cheap calliper available back then with a handbrake mechanism 😅
I remember our neighbor getting one of these, when he and my dad wanted to change wheels they were very confused why the rear wheels weren't locked by the handbrake and thought it was broken lol
The front calliper on a BX is basically the same as a 205 GTi rear calliper, except it uses seals compatible with LHM and not brake fluid.
@@hughparris2073 yes correct ( ish) I say ish because yes same calliper but the seals fitted worked with LHM “AND” brake fluid, NOT INSTEAD OF as you seam to think, so (1) there weren’t many 1.9gtis in scrappies back then lol ( 1.6gti had drums) and (2 ) brakes with LHM seals work perfectly with normal brake fluid, although it’s important to note that doesn’t work the other way round, ie if you put 205 callipers on a BX the seals would not work with LHM fluid. Also the 205 calliper had a far smaller piston ( it was a rear brake not a front brake after all, and in a light tin can of a car with sod all weight in the back) bx better in most other applications tbh than 205, tbh 1.9 gti was over engineered (S1 and S2 RS turbo for instance still had drums and same standard power as 1.9gti ( 130bhp) even ones chipped to near 200bhp still stopped ok on rear drums when really with them having more weight it would have made more sense for rear discs, but still ford didn’t find it necessary and tbh it wasn’t, but I digress lol,not that it matters much at all or makes any difference but to get the best out of BX on the rear you used an adjustable brake bias valve or pedal box but that was defo not mandatory as it worked well either way with or without that) So as I said, front callipers were first things to go in the scrappies off these :) I’ve been there and done it mate ;)
My mates first car was a BX in the late 90s and we fucking loved changing the suspension height whilst he was ordering food at a Maccers drive thru!! This video genuinely had me laughing and smiling throughout - best content out there in my book. Keep it up lads
I was so devastated to learn that the grand tour is coming to an end but this episode proved to me that you guys will carry the legacy. The chemistry you have is rare, and you always make me laugh. Thank you guys! ❤
Literally what I've been thinking, I've only started regularly watching them (although I had seen the video of Alex getting his XJR last year), the chemistry between the three of them literally reminds me of Clarkson, May and Hammond, and really made me think that this is the new (top gear like) trio😅
Jesus, you really have reached Top Gear guys level (maybe even surpassed them)! My favorite scenes: "coolant fountain" and "are you travelling with animals?" -> "no... well, a hamster". Keep going guys this is amazing!
I am so happy to see that there are still running BXs, please for the love of god put some TLC in her and make more content with her. Cheers guys and i wish you happy holidays!
OMG i haven’t laughed so hard at a video in a long time. Alex and Taylor wheezing at each other in the front seats and the shit fountain made my day. We need to start a petition to bring these lads to a wider audience
Don’t often laugh out loud watching videos/TV but twice in this episode. You guys are doing what Top Gear and all the other shows are trying to do. Having a genuine laugh and piss take. Brilliant lads. Love every minute!
I've got to say this has been by far one of your funniest videos. Thank you for the laughs you three 💙
Parents had so many BXs as they used to get scrapped when things finally went wrong and dad used to collect them for parts, once everything that could fall off or fail has done so they are great, we even had the 4x4 estate, it went everywhere
This channel is honestly the most relatable car content. A bunch of lads, pissing about, it’s goes tits up all the time and it’s hilarious! 😂
This video took me all those years back to Hammond, May and Clarkson on the cutting edge of cocking about.
Love your work guys!
Have a good start into the new year.
Never laughed so much !!!! Thanks chaps !! Wish I had a close trio of friends you do !! You’re the new top gear trio !!
Love this, my dad had a BX 16 valve GTi, thing was a blast to ride in as a passenger. And if you doubt it, it has a better 0-60 than a E30 325i
i remember a mate buy one of those and driving to his garage to drop the engine in a Pug 105 GTi only the french would use the same colour cable for everything in a loom.!!
Hubby is loving this, he had a BX in his early 20's, 20 years ago 😂
Comments like this suddenly remind me that I'm old 😂
My dad had one. He loved it, while I loved moving the suspension up and down 😂 it would be great to have another in the family.
This needs to be turned into a sleeper 😂
Old school bosch pumped dturbo conversion
@@MultiBruce3 Or an RB or LS swap would be hilarious 😂
Tesla swap it but put a speaker in the engine bay with a recording of the old diesel sound. Really confuse everyone.
My dad used to have a white one when i was very little he drove it from the netherlands to poland and back to netherlands but halfway on the way back the hydro failed and drove the whole way back with the car slammed to the ground as soon as he turned into our street the very first speedhump tore the whole exaust off the car. he is still having fond memories of that moment to this day.
I could not stop laughing at the cleaning the valve part you guys are amazing!!! Thank you for this year and here’s to a happy new year for all you guys and to all reading 🍾🎉
I have to say you are very privileged chaps to have such a fine motor vehicle for a trip to Paris. The bx is a design icon.
Laught my ass off, felt like I was in that car with you guys. Great one, cheers and happy holidays.
Would love to see a resto on this car!
Good lads having good fun. What more from content do you need!
Good work boys - all the best for next year
The bit where Alex blew through the radiator and had them all in hysterics for a couple of minutes is honestly one of the funnest things I’ve watched in a good while. Thanks for this, brilliant channel!
Yet another laugh out loud video! Spat my beer all over the laptop! When Taylor and Alex look at each other with the moustaches on had me in wrinkles lol
The BX was my 2nd car back in 96. Loved it. Crashed it.
This brings back memories! My parents had late-80s, petrol, white BX when I was a kid. I loved it, and the seats were super comfy. My mum, being the driver, hated the lack of assisted steering, which made parallel parking in a city an utter nightmare. The car lasted just a decade, as it developed a fault with the suspension system that no mechanic could (or wanted to) diagnose and fix. It would just randomly decide to piss all the suspension fluid away, like an incontinent cow. My parents spent a fortune on suspension liquid, trying to keep the car running for the last couple of years. We had a rather scary ride down an 1800 m mountain with no brakes, and my mum decreed that the BX had to go.
A very happy new year from Ireland guys.
Congratulations on getting Edith to Paris and I really enjoyed your upload.
I myself am a car enthusiast as I have owned many cars over the years and my current car is a 2007 opel astra H.
I accidentally decided to buy an opel astra because my previous car was a 2009 saab 9-3 that turned out to be a total lemon and while it was off the road , my kind elderly lady neighbour let me borrow her opel astra H , that was amazingly good on petrol, cheap to insurer and tax.
I bought my astra for 850 euros and I had the rear suspension fixed in my local garage because I didn't have the tools to repair it but I did replace the rear discs and pads , two rear shocks, the plugs , battery, front lower control arms and mass airflow sensor and after spending a total of just under 1500 euros, I now have a good family 4 door saloon that just passed the NCT , MOT until November 2024.
Anyway keep those fantastic uploads coming.
Well done Edith!
Go on lads! U are living the dream! Keep up the amazing content! ❤
Bx is a good car. My grand parents had a bx gtdi and my grandmother put petrol in the tank and broke down about 200 meters away from the petrol station. I remember the white smoke covering area when my grandad tried to start it
15:47 - I cannot be bothered! sums them up beautifully!
Absolutely brilliant. What a team you make. Honestly; this is my favourite YT channel. After a hard days slumber - such a great way to unwind. Happy new year to you all; hope your successes continue. P.S. please celebrate and find a MK1 Mondeo - a real turning point in Ford car history! Can’t seem to find many around! I wished I’d saved my dads from the scrap man.
Love the work Alex and the crew ❤
I used to own an 89 1.9 DTR Turbo estate, in that colour! Great car with a surprising turn of speed. Definitely one of the more interesting cars that I've owned.
I bought one of these new in 1985. It was the first new car I have ever bought, and the best car I have owned. 58mpg. The only other new car I ever bought was a Jaguar X type, the second worst car I have ever bought, next to a 1960's rear engined Skoda. The BX was fabulous, what a lovely car to drive. I wish I still had it. I sold it when I got another BX as a company car.
Thanks for the great year of videos and more recently podcasts, wishing the 3 of you a prosperous new year and look forward to more content 😊
Another awesome video, love you guys and hope you all had a wonderful Christmas
I think you sould turbo it and test how mutch boost it can handel
These are the sort of videos I love just good fun messing around with your mates. Great watching look forward to more in the new year. You have all done so well. Ps looking forward to shedfest.
My Dad had a BX16 in the early 90s. The front windows kept falling down into the doors. I remembering him raising the suspension and driving through a flood. Great days. Bit sad you don’t have the weird rocker switch on the dash for the indicators.
How much fun these guys have never ceases to amaze me! Had me belly laughing!
I literally couldn't stop laughing the whole way through, thank you for this AMAZING content xD
Thanks for this. I needed something to keep me sane in the Gooch week
Loved it, brilliant! Happy New Year!
Seen your posts on Instagram im so looking forward to seeing this 😁
I was lucky to take the eurotunnel 2 days before. Glad to just about miss the strike.
Love to see the bx do a massive journey!, like ferry to Morocco and then across Africa!., thanks for all the videos and podcasts this year guys 👍.
Fantastic lads, keep them coming
These are really going up in value here in Germany
Honestly guys, I’m never sure whether I’m laughing even more than you guys, what a brilliant team you make. Your channel continues to provide constant entertainment and I say a bit of escapism, but either way keep it up guys we love it.
@AutoalexCars
Hey Alex!
I'm from Greece and I've been enjoying your videos since your car throttle days. I own since 2020 a '99 Zoe yellow Alfa Romeo 145 1.8 twinspark which you have inspired me to finish as a project (cause when I bought it was completely "neglected" to be gentle) and take it back to it's birth land (which I've been this year and the Alfas there are no where to be found apart from some new Giuliettas and Mitos) and to be more specific, take her to Arese if possible. Keep up the good work and keep showing people that an old car is not a shame to own if you love it no matter how much they cost to keep them roadworthy (as long as you are ok with your survival obligations)
Bloody brilliant as always!!!!
@28:22: Nice editing... You cannot drive underneath the Eiffel Tower. Looks pretty convincing though. Kudos to the Editor.
27:57
Alex: Rory do you want to get out and film us driving on this road?
Rory gets out and sets up to film the drive by shot.
Taylor: Shall we just leave him there and go home?
Tears of laughter seeing the fountain of shite spout out of the pipe especially when Taylor blew into it. Kinda sums the channel nicely. Dodgy cars and laughter all round. Happy New Year to you all. Thanks for the laughs.
Don't want to be the one spoiling the fun of the video for this, but, you asked for this when you build a train instead of a road. If there is ANYTHING we know is that trains in the uk are shit, and they are EVEN worse in france... so... a bit of captain hindsight for you.
Happy New Year guys, looking forward to more videos over the coming year
Great way to end the year, I look forward to seeing what you guys do next year.
Loving your team and videos keep up the great work
Superb gits and shiggles.
Always loved those old BXs. Seem to remember the later 16V 2.0 petrol engines were quite strong.
Yet again another great video, love to see it when you guys release a new one. ❤
My dad had one of these in the early/mid 90s, it was our family car, same colour, same engine. Drove to France from North Yorkshire in it twice for holidays and everything. It did over 270,000 miles no problem.
One of the unsung heroes of modern cars with its suspension and ride. Have you ever had the pleasure of sitting in an original BX front seat? There isn't a car today that can beat the comfort of a genuine BX front seat.
Great work - the best laugh I’ve had all Christmas! Have a great New Year, and look forward to your adventures in 2024!
Great vid. Loving your work chaps
I loved my two year old black BX 19 gti 16v, traded up from a 1988 Lada Riva estate in 1991. Going from the lada and into the bx gti was like a huge leap and it was so fast. Great car.
Safe it say it’s probably scrapped by now, but good chance the engine still lives on in a 205 😉
Great video- love the BX👍
