New valver on the way
ive recently bought a 2 owner 69, 000 mile bx 16v phase 2 on a 1990 H reg in immaculate condition. Just got to wait 2 weeks to pick it up as it currently has a private plate on which is being transfered to another car. Pics to come once ive got it back here.

Ive known the car for 7 years and yeah its local ( bodmin ) the owner ( now ex owner ) is a good friend of mine. It is a straight genuine mileage car. I didnt get it cheap though. Paid just a smidge over £2000 but I believe its worth every penny. Next step is to try and get a £2500 agreed valuation on it. Ive also just joined the ccc. Dont worry the red valver is staying too as its still going to get restored just colleting a mountain of new parts for it as I find them.

I would say that was a fair price for a low mileage car in good condition.
Good to hear that the red 16v is also staying with you, I imagined that you might be moving it on.
Looking forward to photos in due course.

By no means a guarantee based on past experience of buying garage owner owned cars, but I take your pointTimmo wrote:You'd hope so being as the Old owners Dad is a Cirltroen soecialist in the area!
Forgive me if I've missed it - is this to use daily or store away for dry days and special occasions?

Yes Adrian its all fine ( matt ) and his dad who ive had it off is an independent citroen specialist and everythings been done eg cambelt and tensioners, brakes, tyres, rear arm bearings, service etc. It runs and drives fine and as good as my red 16v.
