This handsome Citroen AC4 is a Slough-built “Torpedo” convertible, described by the vendor as “running well”. It appears to have been well looked after over the years, and comes with a good collection of invoices and correspondences. These indicate a restoration in the 1970s which included a new aluminium body (costing over £10k), followed by a rebuild of the 1628cc 30HP engine in the 1990s.
Paperwork also includes the car's buff logbook from the 1950s, together with a collection of restoration photos and old MoT certificates going back to 1980. It was last put through an MoT inspection in 2012, and passed without advisories, with 2963 miles on the odometer. Today that figure is 4599.
The Citroen was first registered on 15th May 1929.
