Here on this side of the screen, we like almost everything, but we have our stable preferences in terms of brands and types. We see it just like with relationships: You can float from one to the other, but if you stay with someone you get to know that person and if it goes well, you will appreciate it more and more. More
It has been happening for a long time, of course. It is a fact that new cars become used cars. Then they become used cars, old cars and then? Then they are forgotten until they are discovered. Or stay forgotten. More
If you are busy with classics 24/24, you often see things that have 'potential' before they are generally 'discovered' and better known. For example, 25 years ago the first ex-Soviet sidecar combination came into the picture in the editorial office and a freelance photographer / V drove around 20+ years ago in a Citroen BX. She still does, although she is now working on BX number five. More
There's a plate of an XM with a diesel heart around here. It is unsaleable. Because it is a diesel. But the gorgeous XMs have another problem: At the cocktail tables, they're just as bad as Citroën BXs. More
There are undoubtedly still AMK readers who remember that a car had to have a small service and fresh oil every 2500 km and that a clutch with about 50D kilometers and a block with 'a ton on it' was really 'finished'. But from the XNUMXs things went very well with […] More
At least: the summer vacation time. Happy retirees are already busy with autumn, Christmas and spring holidays. When the last holiday came up - Northern France, the French Ardennes - the question from 'the other party' was: "But not in such an old car?" Not all of our acquaintances are classic connoisseurs. But of course it was because […] More
We drive for sustainability reasons - a long story short: classic driving is more sustainable than a Tesla driving - also just classic every day. One of those daily classics is now number five in a consecutive series Citroën BXsen. Its almost perfect appearance appeared to conceal underlying suffering after purchase, but that path is […] More
And that is very annoying for people who have the Citroën Like BX so much that they have specialized in it. Garage Berben from Ulft and garage Hesselink from Dirksland are some of those strongholds of pure Citroën bx love. But where it sells in the higher and top segment of the classic country […] More
Speaking of reliability: Due to the BX passion of one of our freelancers, a message sometimes creeps about 'the last real Citroëns' in the news section. And while the days of birthday parties are all about talking about how bad those things are, the BXs remain interested […] More
Worth or not worth. That's the question When it came up, there was already surprise: “Almost 1.000 euros in repair costs on a 1400 cc BX from 1991?” “That's a waste of money, isn't it! Such a car is never worth it!” What something is worth is not really determined by the market. You decide that. Inside […] More
The BX octopus job. That is often a prayer without end. But now that BXs are carefully coming out of the dark corner, you really can't buy a nice BX for small change anymore, it pays to get things right. The large and small octopus are the hose bundles with which the hydraulics of the […] More
Citroëns in De Steeg. Still put it on the agenda. Because August is closer than you think: From 11-14 August there will be a party in the Steeg, between Velp and Dieren, by the ICCCR2016 foundation. ICCCR stands for Intenational Citroën Car Club Rally. The official agreement to this effect was signed this week by Gaar […] More
