As per Marks email, we knew it was coming, not a bad price, needs a little tidying in places, another of Mr Ruggs BX's I never got to see in the flesh :(

When you look at some of the prices being asked in France it's actually pretty good

The one and only I think... Its not unusual to find €5000 being asked for a Sport on Leboncoin. And the Ruggs' is certainly a good one, better than most we saw at the BX 30th celebrations. The plastic parts seem vulnerable to damage.

I think we had one citroen dealer here in Austraila who imported the kit from citroen and had it put on a GT. Unfortunately, if I remember correctly it got written off in anti-nuclear testing protests in the late 80's or early 90's.

Gosh the sports look lovely.

Think there are at least 3 in the Uk but couldn't guarantee it. 4k seems a bit pricey but as previously stated some worse examples are advertised for more in France but there are also some on a par for considerably less.

Rear arm bearings look rather shocking, otherwise i'd snap it up if I had the funds! Stunning looking car.

Lovely car, downsides are LHD & the price, it might be worth near to the asking price if it was RHD, but LHD no way. Let's hope someone proves me wrong, haha.

You cant get a RHD sport, the steering linkage wont fit, worth the money imho, if someone wanted my GT it wouldnt be that much cheaper than that.

I think the "1 owner from new" statement is a little misleading. More like one owner since imported, as that's what it will say on the log book.

Comparitively good value compared to importing one now, but I wouldn't pay it!
I have zero patience for your tedium.
