I've also driven the 1.7 n/a and it is also a decent drive.
It should be remembered that a BX weighs no more than a modern city car and has equal or more power - and almost certainly more torque.
Totally agree although the 1.7s were normally not fitted with PAS which is a pain with the heavier diesel engines and totally ruins the driving experience but a 1.9 with PAS is a great drive.
