1979 Citroen CX 2. 0 Athena RHD
79000 miles with comprehensive history file
Fabulous in the rare white
was UK registered KBM722V - just 4 owners there
Starts and drives well with good interior
Super project comes with new wings
good history file warrants the mileage
Sad story - owner left his pride and joy into Bodyshop where old wings were removed and then car was left outdoors when the business folded
Recent parts spend as follows:
2020 2 new wings €1119. 67 (supplied)
2015 front and rear discs and pads, handbrake pads and cables €244 (fitted)
hi torque starter (fitted)
2016 4 Semperit tyres €360
New Pioneer stereo (original period Audioline in boot)
as you can see front end has already been stripped. Wings are currently held on with cable ties. All removed parts are in the car. See pictures for areas of rust that will need to be addressed. These include door bottoms, bonnet lip, boot lid seam, battery tray, outer sills. Further stripping may reveal more but floors looks ok. Once body restoration is completed this will be one fabulous car with low mileage and good history.
note there is a hydraulic fluid from the rear right when the suspension is raised to the highest position. Also I have noticed the starter motor has stuck on on a couple of occasions. Other than that car starts and drives well, brakes and suspension perform like they should. Engine is sweet and gearbox iseems good with no synchro issues. No obvious knocks from driveshafts. All electrics and instruments working bar the lamps currently removed from the car
IMPORTANT NOTE:
I strive to offer a descriptive and transparent auction listing. . However car has not had a full ramp check over or engineers report and I am not a qualified vehicle inspector. Your own analysis is very important and I am here to help and also answer any and all queries you may have prior to purchase.
I offer and positively encourage bidders to view, or arrange inspections for each vehicle thoroughly prior to bidding. Viewing by appointment in Rathgar
If you wish to see additional photos of any aspect of the car please contact me.
Please note that vehicles are sold as seen and a returns policy is not applicable. This is the norm for used items acquired at auction.
