Complete and sound car, ideal for historic rallies or private collection. The Citroën Type C 5HP, bought as a birth gift for my twin children, has incomparable charm. It is an iconic model of the 1920s, one of the first cars produced in large numbers in France. Immortalised by Hergé, it is the car associated with Tintin’s adventures.
It stands out for its elegant lines, its yellow colour typical of the 5HP of the era, and its lightness. It is a simple, reliable car and very endearing to drive. Unlike many other antique models, it offers left-hand drive, which makes it pleasant and practical to use today.
What makes it unique is its authenticity, its meticulous presentation and its historic registration. It always attracts sympathy at outings and events, and draws a lot of interest thanks to its timeless style.
What I love about this car is its charm and the pleasure it gives: driving it truly feels like stepping back in time.
