Citroën BX 19 TRI K6 Automatic S3 / 19 TRI U9 S2

            BX-Club Magazijndag + Tour @ Drenthe
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The BX is quite a common classic in the Netherlands.
19 TRI's on the other hand are a bit of a rarity among them. It's not a model version that was offered on a large scale anywhere in the world. Finding a lot of information about them is very difficult! 
Some of what's known to me, is that it was supposed to be a fuel injected version of the TRS (carburettor) The 19 TRI was to my knowledge only offered as a phase 1 break, or phase 2 berline/break... And most often came as an automatic. Phase 3 came, in most countries like NL, with the 19 TZI and/or TZS. As replacement for the TRI and TRS, being the fastest and most luxurious models before the GTi range.
Yet, Belgium clearly had another market entirely. And got a Phase 3, 19 TRI that instead looked much more like a GTi.... And without it's catalytic converter spits out pretty much the same horses... (120 against 122 on 8V GTi's) 
19 TRI's are one of the most hard-to-find BX's today.
But these two are today both pretty much equally unique, and almost certainly no longer have twins anywhere in the world...

Mine because it's an original Dutch licensed, cream white example with a brown int. and a manual gearbox instead of an auto.
And this Belgian blue example, because of it's color, the fact it's a phase 3 and because it originally came from the factory, looking like a GTi instead of a luxury model with windows in the C-pillars. Each country obviously got slightly different models... Often due to differences in emission regulations. But naturally I was still absolutely stunned to find out about this one's existence...
