The Sterling Eccles Ruby sits in a competitive mid-weight bracket with its 1450kg MTPLM. While it shares this weight limit with alternatives like the Lunar Clubman and Bailey Pegasus Brindisi, the Ruby is slightly shorter at 7.2m compared to their 7.3m to 7.37m lengths. This makes it a more compact option for those managing driveway space while maintaining a similar payload of 200kg. The price range of 10000 to 25000 reflects its position as a durable, well-regarded used choice against both premium and budget-focused alternatives.
Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.
