BX Club Forum

Hello to all!

My name is Fernando and I am from Madrid, Spain. This one is my BX SPORT 1986. He is in original condition. In Spain there exist few units of this model specially in this color. I wait to learn very much in this forum with all of you.
Is possible to see photos of BX SPORT in UK?

Love that

Lovely car, looks great in Red! Welcome.

Welcome, the BX sport was never sold in the UK, that looks ace

Amazing "showroom" condition! Clearly a cherished and rare model example.

One word: WOW! That's a very beautiful car you have there Fernando and a very warm welcome to BXCUK. As others have pointed out, the BX Sport was never sold in this country - much to everyone's disappointment - so it'll be great to hear more about you car. A word of warning: we WILL be jealous!

Lovely car apart from the steering wheel being on the wrong side

All Sports had it on the 'wrong' side Kevan - SMs too.

Indeed, RHD sports weren't possible due to the reworked head and carb/exhaust set up fouling the steering column.

I thought they did RHD SM's? I hope so it's my 'when i win the lottery' car!

I've got a feeling that they were converted to rhd Kevan?

No RHD factory cars at all - I think there were one or two DIY conversions though - Australian I think. If you win the lottery Kevan that's probably not going to be a problem.

nice paint for a red one. i suspect a respray? red ones struggled with the english sunshine let alone the spanish. but none the less a very nice bx indeed, why were these not sold on the uk market?

As Tim says - twin (?) carb/exhaust set up which meant they couldn't be converted to RHD.

That looks like original paint to me - I dunno' it just looks . . . original.

Red cars DO keep their shine if cosseted. Theres a Mk1 C plate 16TRS which has had one father/son owner from new and gleams! its never had paint afaik.
