Descripción
This is an extremely rare example of Citroen's venture into the use of rotary engines, based on the NSU design, which was in production for a very short period between 1973 and 1975, with sold cars being bought back by Citroen and destroyed, resulting in very few remaining.
It is understood that this Birotor was one of those bought back by Citroen but kept by a Citroen employee before being sold to a Citroen enthusiast, whose family owned a Citroen dealership in Normandy. It was then sold to a Citroen dealership in Brittany, who kept it as part of their collection, and then had one further owner in France before being purchased by the current owner, on whose behalf we are selling the car.
It has survived in exceptionally good overall condition, having covered only 74, 662 Kms (46, 664 miles) from new in the hands of enthusiast owners. In original gold and bronze two-tone finish, with only two small blemishes to the paintwork. This is complimented by a largely original interior, the seats having been re-finished in a tweed material.
The car is currently Guernsey registered and we can assist with shipping and importing processes if required.
