These have really started to appeal again recently. I didn't mind them when they first came out but were never near the top of a buying list. Now I feel like they have matured to the point that I'd quite like one, must more so than a DS which I've never got the fascination with.

Ex-FiL has literally a shed load of these - think it was 7 when I last saw him a decade ago - he loved them and was amassing them when they became totally worthless - he was an odd fellow though

Not as low as my CX which is from the same year. 78701 miles in 29 years when I collected it.

That wasn't my gripe, it's being advised that 'it's nothing for these cars' holds no meaning. I wouldn't be a point to mention if the seller didn't think that the mileage was an issue. If it were removed it would make no difference to the car or the advert. The mileage is simply a statement of fact is it not like a colour??

You probably won't want to look at this one then....

I saw this one first, but the other car is nicer. You can thank me later laugh

I reckon a nice set of period wheels would set that off nicely!

If that's a Series 2 CX 22TRS, then those are the correct wheel covers.
