Description
For sale my 64/ 65 Citroen ID
This car is the last production of the long stroke 1911cc engine, with the engine marking DE. It was Paris built and then imported to the UK sometime later, so LHD. It has LHM hydraulic suspension, normal brakes and no power steering. The mileage is 83, 029km but I cannot verify this. I’ve covered about 20, 000km over the time I have owned the car.
I have had it since 2008 and it has run well over this time, I have had it round Scotland and across to Ireland. I have replaced the exhaust manifold, starter and various ignition components. It was waxoyled in 2008 and has been stored in the garage till last summer, and since then has been covered. The interior was replaced in 2008 although the headlining needs reattaching. The car is in good condition apart from a dent in the offside rear door which needs pushed out.
It is currently a non-runner because when I took it out the garage last summer (’25) the head gasket went (not uncommon in these cars). I replaced the head gasket last summer, and had the head skimmed by a specialist, however due to a combination of personal issues, I haven’t managed to get the time to get it running again. The problem is either a loose wire in the ignition circuit, or a poor seal between the carb and engine block. I had to take the dash off to replace the choke cable, and was unable to find the exact gasket, so made one up myself.
All the parts are there to put it back together, and I dont think it would take too much effort to get it back on the road. But I can’t leave it sitting over another Scottish winter.
I have priced it for a quick sale and would consider a discount if someone were able to collect in the next 2 weeks.
