Description

Up for sale I have my Slough built 1951 Citreon Light 15/Traction Avant.

It has spent its whole life in NZ, sold new in the North Island and has changed a few hands over its 75 years slowly working its way to Christchurch where it has lived since the 70s. Have post office ownership card with previous owners and factory maintenance manuals.

Fresh wof done 21/04/26 1 year wof Rego until 27/08/26 Speedo shows 21,000 miles I'm sure it would have been around the clock at least once.

Recent work completed. Carb stripped and cleaned and tuned. New rear shocks bushs. Panhard rod bushs. Oil changed and grease points topped up. New condenser. New spark plugs. New coil lead and plug leads. Cut and polished. New brake hoses and brake fluid. New vacuum line. Compression test 110psi on all cylinder. Converted to 12v In early 2000s

Exterior paint presents well for age was re painted in 1991 a couple cracks and chips but expected for its age. Period correct Michelen tyres chrome recently polished presenting well again for its age.

Interior is in great condition, has been redone at some stage in its life wood work presents very well also. Period correct radio and speaker in rear tray.

Mechanically drives well for being 75 years old cruises around 50/55 mph. I have done a few adjustments to the front suspension as per the extensive mechanical maintenance book some bushs are showing some wear as expected for its age.

Comes with an extensive amount of spares. Doors, motors, trims, mechanical items and assorted bits and bobs will need a flat deck trailer to collect the lot.

$16,500 ono Viewing in Bromley chch.
