   I bought this six months ago. Been reliable, of course. paint has been treated with 'diamond bright' presumably when new. its keeps its shine lovely, just a quick wash occasionally and it looks polished, winner. its thrifty, drives ok, even my Mrs is happy to drive it. speedo and therefor milometer are about 10-15% out which is odd, got normal 14 inch steel wheels on it, so maybe gearbox has been changed. might get bigger wheels which would help with speedo and look better. LX has rev counter, 4 power windows, power sunroof and aerial is electric too and it all works. that said, cable/lever to open boot and fuel cap from inside the car, seems this model didn't have it fitted?! 89000 miles. not had to lift bonnet very often, which is good as the bonnet itself weighs the same as a modern small car.. |

I like these. It's only the lack of a garage and still being married that stops me from buying one. Still looks quite "modern" today and looks even better in black, which always shows up the dirt. I have "Diamond Glazed" my A10 SSS recently and you can still get it on Fleabay. Very simple to use and, yes, it does what it says on the bottle. It's very similar to this;

I've had a couple of these Bluebirds in the relatively recent past, I enjoyed my time in both of them and they did a good job for me as daily transport.

I had a pristine 89 bluebird 2li, one owner from new and full service history, no one had sat in the back seats til I had it in 99. Loved it to bits but made big mistake of wanting a newer car a few years back, couldn't sell it for love nor money despite it having 10 months MOT and less than 100,000 miles, even offered it to Datman at the time but he said no one would be interested in it, wish I had known about this site as it ended up being scrapped.........still miss it today.... now a mad micra hoarder instead!!
