Old ads.

Hi All,

This is a site that I look at from time to time. Here's a link to a Citroen CX ad I hadn't seen before.

Hi Steve

Link doesn't work I'm afraid. Does anyone remember the ad for the BX estate with a fish tank in the back? My BMW has the diesel engine on which they balanced a 50p on edge, remember that?

Excellent CX advert, you can get it by going through tot he home page, and selecting the C section of ads, there is a good one for a BX as well. "Loves driving, hates garages"

Hi Peter,

I remember the coin balancing Ad but don't remember which model it was for. It was on Billboards at the time along with Ads of the vehicles being lifted up by their doors.

Hi Steve

It was for the TDS six cylinder diesel, supposedly the most refined engine of its time, came out in the early 90s but was used until about 2002 that was when they brought in the self destructing common rail engine, about twice the power of mine but about half the life. The TDS is still a nice engine, real six cylinder purr and nearly 50 mpg - the way I drive it :D
