ZX's are about, but disappearing fast - according to How Many Left I think there's less ZX's than Xantias on the road in the UK now!

Quite a few late AX's about, and there's increasing interest in the GT models, but some of the early models are very rare now.

Probably because like other French hot hatches they are holding and appreciating in value and make good faster cars with a VTS or such engine dropped in without too much work...

When I was in torre del mar several weeks ago I saw a gray bx scruffy looking and dusty and sunk down I wonder if I will see any in a month when I come out again on the 25th of August

I thought there was a more recent thread on this topic...?

Q2 - 2017 figures.

Total XM on the road = 284
S1 = 83
S2 = 201.

Total for Q2 - 2016 was 353, so an attrition of 69...20%.

They're falling like flies. The scrappage scheme will accelerate the trend, probably.

Not many Turbo Diesels VSX's , of which I have one, are left now in Q2 of 2017 i.e 40 as opposed to 55 in Q2 of 2016. So, attrition rate of 27%. is higher than the average. However, 8 have been SORNED out of the 15 taken out of circulation, meaning that 7 have been scrapped, presumably. I wonder whether any of the SORNED ones will be brought back into circulation?

Good for you. By any chance is it through Savoy Garage in Burnley? Is it a diesel estate, like mine? I presume you will be avoiding diesels like the plague .
