1949 Classic "Traction Avant" For Sale

A lovely example of the famous "Maigret" car, built in Slough, Bucks and right hand drive was exported to South Africa and I imported it in 2013. In South Africa the previous owner did a full strip down and renovation which took 4 years. Mechanically very sound the engine having been re-built. The car has been completely re-upholstered in beige lether with a matching roof lining. The colour is a really nice dark British Racing Green. I have had it serviced regularly, it having just been serviced(20/ 9/ 17) I have upgraded the the petrol pump and ignition to electric ones, though the originals I have kept. The lights too have been upgraded. It really is a lovely car and turns heads wherever we go and always invites questions when we stop. The first car I bought in 1957 was the Citroen Light 15 and I have always wanted one and it is with reluctance that I am obliged to offer it for sale.

Seat frames and cushions are all present, the cushions need repairs or replacement but the frames are fine. One ...

Originally owned by the French Embassy in London. I bought it at 18000 miles. Current MOT, drives as if it is gliding. Shows its age but gracefully. Because of ULEZ its too expensive to drive into town but would be perfect elsewhere. If your looking at this advert you probably know how superb a car this is. The back seats ...
