[chrisds]

[peterzs]

I've got the same, are you a BX..... reg????

Think they were MG demo cars.

:wave::wave::wave:

[chrisds]

hi no mines a BL52 iv been looking into it and seems they were cars used in tv shows films and motoring mags

[peterzs]

A lot of the MG SV's are BX, think MG must have pre registered loads of cars to push their sale figurers up.

[Maxxed_Ross]

my old ZS was a BX MG-Rover owned demo car too - but it was put into storage when they went bust

I've no idea where BL comes from

[petet16]

B are all Birmingham registrations, the second letter is the different areas, I think X is Dudley.

Hope this helps.

Think BX must be the most used prefix out there.

We have a van just round the corner BX, have a bendy bus that runs to Bournemouth Uni, BX, seen it on a few TV programmes, Midsomer Murders used to have a 75 with a BX.

[petet16]

The BX 75 from Midsomer Murders was probably lent by the MGR press garage.

[peterzs]

Annoy the wife every time its on screen, "look a BX", sad, but there you go.

Plus I have a spot the BX, whenever we are driving about.

See them all over and on cars, vans and trucks.

[MG ZS STE]

im BW and believe the first owner was a MGR employee that got the car through the company employee car owner scheme.
