Highlights

An early AZ model, now over 70 years old and increasingly scarce
Matching serial numbers noted
Registered under France's collection registration scheme

The Appeal

The Citroën 2CV AZ, introduced in 1954, marked a significant step forward for France's beloved "Tin Snail" with its upgraded 425cc air-cooled flat-twin engine. A 1955 example is a genuinely early car, distinguished by period-specific details that make it immediately recognizable and appealing to devotees of post-war French motoring.

This particular AZ, finished in gray, benefits from a new seat and a new hood, while the contrôle technique is valid until September 2027, offering peace of mind for its next custodian. With its charming interior, delightfully simple modular construction, and endearing character, this 2CV AZ presents a rare chance to acquire a well-maintained example that is only becoming harder to find.
