1985 Citroen BX difficult to start

Car: Citroen BX
Year: 1985
Variant: BX19 GT
Categories: Running Rough, Starting & Power Loss
Car is extremely difficult to start, at all times, but especially in cold conditions. Requires dozens of attempts, flattens batteries and if I'm lucky will finally start. I am completely unfamiliar with these engines and I'm wondering where to begin troubleshooting it.

No different from any other older car of that year . Need checking basics , plugs , filters , leads , compressions .
