Description Desirable Paris-built example of Citroen’s groundbreaking Traction Avant; achingly usable and appealingly original example; 'Normale' wheelbase; driven 25 miles to the sale Produced from 1934 until 1957, the Citroën Traction Avant was one of the most innovative cars of its era, featuring front-wheel drive, independent suspension, and unitary body construction at a time when such engineering was highly advanced.
Today, the Traction Avant remains an important and recognisable example of post-war French motoring, admired for its distinctive styling and usability.
This smart, Paris-built Traction Avant, believed to have been manufactured on 4th September 1953 according to club records, is finished in its original specification of black over grey upholstery and is the larger ‘Normale’ wheelbase model, offering improved comfort and greater interior space.
The car has had just six keepers, including our vendor, over its 72-year life and is displaying only 81,054 kilometres.
