Description
The car has been owned since 2004 by well-known enthusiasts within the Citroen club and much mechanical work has been done (see the owner's comment). It is one of the few that have survived as most are now rusted due to poor rust protection. The current owner bought the car in 2021 and has continued to take care of it but is now starting to run out of space in the garage, which is why he is choosing to sell it.

Owner's comment
In a conversation with the previous owner, he told that he bought the car from an estate in Norrköping. That winter, he removed the engine and gearbox, went through everything and changed all the gaskets and packings, as well as the starter motor, generator, pressure plate and vanes, exhaust system. He also scraped off all the underbody sealant (original) and painted it with new. The car has never been rustproofed underneath and has been treated with linseed oil on existing rust spots on the paint to stop the process. The camshafts and service were done in April 2022. An honest veteran car without many improvements. The car has an original petrol heater included, but it is not mounted in the car now. The car is inspected and roadworthy and works very well mechanically and hydraulically. 2 keys, original instruction book and inspection report are included.
