Sills look like they've taken a bit of a beating, but all in all, has the potential to be a BX bargain.

As Philip has already stated, looks like someone could get a bargain :D as its only a three day listing.
Seller's Quote :-
"There is also a clicking noise you can hear when the engine is running, it clicks about every 2 - 3 seconds I have no idea what it is but the car still drives fine and the suspension lifts up and down exactly as it should "
That's sound's like just the main accumulator sphere needs changing, just a simple 5-10 minute job.
The others may need changing too, but seller has stated "ride is so comfortable it effortlessly glides over speed bumps" so therefore probably okay ?
Those 'Add-on' rear corner bumper cap's look unusual, never seen those before :!:
I wonder if they are a Citroen/Bespoke branded after market accessory or some universal type ?

Classic (in one particular sense of the word). And the front seats - they might just adjust for rake, but I wouldn't count on it....

No rear door-open shots so some rust patches might be hiding there go with the others , but certainly worth a look if nearby and the seller can find the time..
Back on two wheels and pedal power for the moment.

Hope it's gone to a seller with good intentions and enthusiasm, rather than for resale....
