Citroën said today that a new limited edition of the “My Ami Buggy” Series will be available online – at 10 am on June 20th. This is a sequel of the 2022 of the online sale of 50 “My Ami Buggy Ultra-Limited Series” in France. (See Bruce Meyers in Notable Deaths During 2021)
Citroën will sell a new special edition of 1000 units, which will be available in ten countries: France including the French overseas departments, Italy, Spain, Belgium, Greece, Portugal, the United Kingdom, Luxembourg, Morocco and Turkey. Buggy is priced at €10,490, ~$11,300.50 if you can get one. The last time around it took the fastest buyer to complete the entire purchase process of the first sale 2 minutes and 53 seconds. The first will be delivered mid-September.
In a nod to comfort of sorts, the Buggy with no doors or roof is fitted with several additional accessories, such as transparent door covers to protect its occupants from the elements and a removable zipper bag fits into a hollowed-out shape in the center of the steering wheel to store small objects.
A new roof closing has been created with a black waterproof canopy that now has a zipper, so it is more practical and easier to handle. Fully integrated into the design the cover can be stretched. It’s claimed this fabric gives the whole vehicle a “coherent style.” It is also less drafty when driving. It can be rolled up and attached to the rear of the vehicle with snap buttons. Moreover, new door and roof frames have been added to secure the clear tarpaulins and soft top.

Above all, decades after he first drove a car, Zino still revels in the sound of the exhaust as the throttle is blipped during a downshift and the driver’s rush that occurs when the entry, apex and exit points of a turn are smoothly and swiftly crossed. It’s the beginning of a perfect lap.
