You'll have a hard job finding a BX 16v now. Most of them were seen as a cheap source of an Mi16 engine.

Cant remember the last time I saw any BX on the road.

in a weird sort of way.

My boss had a CX. Fun to drive but I was glad I didnt own it!

Theres a lad local who has an immaculate white one, probably nigh on concourse. You only see it now and then when its nice weather, might stop him next time its out. Id rather one of these than a 405 MI 16

Made me feel sick when turning into corners, all soft and roll then firming up.

Had to rev the tits off it as well, no real torque below 4000rpm.

Never owned one but drove my mates one a few times.
