Ah OK.
Just that I had a little google arround with all this BX interest all of

turbo version than (I can remember the older designation) turbo diesels.
I guess that owner was way wrong if it is just a spec trim level.

My uncle had a BX Diesel estate. Don`t know if it was the turbo or the
plodder, but he kept it for years. Was the best car he ever had he

Yeah, it was for Steve and his "must be german" company car. Wondered if
rather than them supplying a german car, he could choose the allowance
instead.
