The Citroën BX, produced from 1983 to 1993, was a compact executive car that marked a significant departure from the brand's traditional design language. This front-wheel drive, hydro-pneumatic suspension model was conceived as a more affordable alternative to the flagship Citroën CX, and was designed by the Italian coachbuilder Bertone. The BX's sleek, aerodynamic profile with its distinctive wedge shape and flush-fitting door handles set it apart from its contemporaries. Its advanced, innovative hydro-pneumatic suspension, inherited from the CX, provided exceptional ride comfort and roadholding. The BX featured a range of petrol and diesel engines, offering a blend of performance and economy. Notable for its spacious interior, generous luggage capacity and advanced features like rear window wipers and a digital instrument cluster, the BX was a technological marvel for its time. The BX was initially praised for its innovative features and driving dynamics, but faced challenges with reliability issues. The hydro-pneumatic suspension, while offering exceptional comfort, could be prone to leaks and costly repairs. The BX also struggled with its aging design and lack of modern safety features towards the end of its production run. Despite these challenges, the BX achieved considerable commercial success, with over 1.1 million units sold. Today, the Citroën BX is regarded as a quirky and distinctive classic, particularly appreciated by enthusiasts for its unique styling and technological advancements. A full service repair manual for the BX would be an invaluable resource for owners and mechanics alike, providing detailed instructions and guidance on maintaining and repairing this iconic French car.
