The Citroën CX is a large, front-engined, front-wheel-drive executive car manufactured and marketed by Citroën from 1974 to 1991. Production models were either a standard wheelbase or a stretched, more luxurious, four-door fastback saloon, as well as a station wagon (estate), on the longer wheelbase. The CX is known for its hydropneumatic self-leveling suspension system (continued and. Decent performance from the 2.5-litre flat-four didn't help sales for the Gamma, which appeals for its rarity and styling. Few remain in the UK, but rot-free examples still turn up in Italy.

Car Show Outtake: 1982 Citroën CX 2400 GTi - Fuel Injected Flying Carpet, by Johannes Dutch Huge amounts of interior space, a silky smooth ride, and quirky features inside and out.. and all are present and accounted for in today's Rare Ride — the CX 25 Prestige, from 1987.. the engine electrics would just suddenly shut down leaving him completely stranded. Citroen replaced every piece of electrical kit in that car and it. Having owned/driven: DS, GS, CX, Activa (Xantia) and C5 (let alone R4 and R16TS)..I clearly have a passion for the marque. In terms of design, the DS, CX and GS had amazing, bold designs (and some were even less bold than the prototypes), but as posed below, unless you drive Citroens, you only understand a percentage of the appeal. An estate in top condition will cost about £11,600, and so will an immaculate 2500 Diesel of the same age. CXs from the 1980s are generally worth slightly less for the lesser models, but you'll need to stump up around £9100 for a decent GTi Turbo. Find a really good show-quality car and that price goes up to £16,200.

The 1974 Citroen CX was the perfect replacement for the legendary DS. It took all of the best parts of its 1955 predecessor and added a few new tricks of its own.. The interior was wonderfully idiosyncratic on the series one cars with rotating drum instruments and touch-sensitive brake pedal, although from 1985, Series 2 cars had traditional. In 1985, the model was upgraded - the Series 2 got plastic bumpers and an interior that was more in line with '80s fashions. A relatively powerful diesel engine came out in 1987 - with the 2.5-litre 120-hp turbo-diesel engine, the CX could hit 195 km/h and was probably the fastest diesel car in the world. For its centenary, Citroën entrusted the transformation of a CX PRESTIGE to interior designer Tristan Auer. With his propensity for custom-built excellence, the designer played around with textures and materials in different shades of blue and redesigned the cabin to adapt it for modern use, whilst deeply respecting the car's history and original era.

The Citroën CX is an automobile produced by the French automaker Citroën from 1974 to 1991. Citroën sold nearly 1.2 million CXs during its 16 years of production. The CX was voted European Car of the Year in 1975. It is considered by some enthusiasts as the last "real Citroën" before Peugeot took control of the company in 1974. "Real Citroën" refers to the trademark avant garde technical. Compared to its illustrious predecessors, the CX wagon provided a bit less innovation, but it made up for it with a mix of style, roominess and (relative) reliability. The style was authored Citroen's in-house design team, under the helm of Robert Opron. This is the same team that crated the SM and the GS - two other space-age '70s icons.
Where the CX really stood out however, and made a true leap forward, was in the area of packaging and aerodynamic styling. The CX would ultimately have a Coefficient of Drag of 0.29 (lower is better) when the typical American cars of the time would be in the range of 0.45-0.50. Indeed, its moniker "CX" is the French acronym for coefficient of air resistance. CX Corbillard (hearse) Above manufactured by Heuliez Augereau, the CX Corbillard had a lengthened body; the rear two doors were deleted and a new, vinyl-covered superstructure incorporating tinted glass was installed. Additionally a chromed embellisher was fitted below the bodywork. Heuliez Augereau also built a 5 door hearse above and below.
