Car Forum / Citroen Cars / June 2007Driving a '74 CX
Hi, I have the option of acquiring a '74 citroen CX 2400. How's that car for daily use (short distances)? Are CX parts hard to get in general? I do have a backup-car - my girlfriend's peugeot 206, which I can use in case it breaks down. The current price is 3500 euro. It could use a paint job, but would that increase the value?

Some stuff will be, because that's a VERY VERY early CX. For short distances? It'll be fine, the mechanicals are bomb-proof, but it'll be very thirsty. You'll want to be looking very closely at it for rust - all CXs rust well, but before about '80, they rusted VERY well indeed. > The current price is 3500 euro.

Nowhere near as much as a decent paint job would cost. > I have the option of acquiring a '74 citroen CX 2400. <thinks for a brief moment> No such thing as a '74 2400. '74 CXs were 2000 or 2200, the 2400 didn't come out until about '76. >> I have the option of acquiring a '74 citroen CX 2400. > > <thinks for a brief moment> > No such thing as a '74 2400. > > '74 CXs were 2000 or 2200, the 2400 didn't come out until about '76. Perhaps it sort of grew up? A lot can happen in 30 years ;))  Signature-- ^^^^^^^^^^ -- Whiskers -- ~~~~~~~~~~ Whiskers schreef: > Perhaps it sort of grew up?
