Mission Statement:

"To help you enjoy your Classic Citroën to the full"

Here, we hope, is the biggest, best and most up-to-date collection of technical information about the Classic Citroëns. The documents are presented with the wish that they may help more people keep these wonderful cars going, so we can continue to see them on the roads..

André Citroën didn't care to drive himself - he preferred his wife to drive - but he established a remarkable series of companies, culminating, at the end of the first World War, with the Société Anonyme André Citroën, where he decided to start car production in a large and well-equipped artillery-shell factory he had established in Paris.  He proceeded to take on a number of imaginative people, many of them self-taught, and gave them the means and the encouragement to design a series of increasingly extraordinary and revolutionary cars.  Some features of their maintenance and use require skills and understanding which you may not have learned from cars of other makes...

Getting to understand and care for these remarkable cars is part of the delight of owning them.  In many ways they still perform better than most modern cars, and some of them are astonishingly beautiful, inside and out.  They are not especially difficult to look after, but they are different, and we need to be ready to enjoy this!

Here, to help you, are gathered together the efforts of many generous-spirited people around the world who have scanned, or lent for scanning, factory service manuals, parts lists, handbooks and other technical information.  There are also publications from companies who supplied parts to or for Citroën in the period, and individual 'essays' describing some features of the cars in greater detail, written more recently by enthusiasts.

As things stand, this site covers the front-wheel-drive cars, starting with the earliest Traction Avant, through the D-series cars and the SM up to the last CX and GS and including the long-lived A-series two-cylinder cars.

Our purpose here is to help you enjoy your classic Citroën to the full.

Please get in touch and help if you can!
