C. 1924 CITROEN 5 HP C3 "torpedo 3-seater t3-1 Chassis no. 42204 French registration Nice patina 10 000 / 15 000€ While the French government encouraged carmakers to invest in cycle-cars through tax breaks, Citroën preferred to focus on small cars. The 5HP was the first Citroën to enter the small car segment, then monopolized by Peugeot and Renault. Such was its success that, at the same date, it accounted for almost half of Citroën's sales. In 1923, a convertible version with 3 seats, 2 at the front and one at the rear, was launched, earning it the nickname 5 CV "Trèfle". The model offered was a 3-seater torpedo (T3-1) or "Faux trèfle" with 3 staggered seats (folding seat). The body is also based on a wooden structure, to which preformed sheet metal is nailed. The rear end is more rounded than that of the 2-seater torpedo. A folding folding seat is fitted at the front when the passenger seat is in the rear position. The rear trunk is located behind the driver's seat. It is accessible from above and closed by a lid. Unrestored, this pretty 5hp has a beautiful patina. It's rare to find a car that's almost a hundred years old in this condition. Acquired by our collectors a few years ago, the car immediately became part of their museum collection. Having been out of action for many years, it will now have to be put back on the road.

1952 Citroën 2CV Type A Chassis number 29874 French registration Rare Type A The original deuche Good condition To be restored The Citroën 2CV should have been launched in 1939, but the Second World War forced the French manufacturer to postpone the release of its very inexpensive car. Its mission was to put France on wheels. During the war, Citroën continued to develop its project. It wasn't until 1948 that the 2CV was officially presented to the public and the press. The public was initially bewildered. The new popular little car was soon nicknamed "the sardine can". The specifications were simple: 4 doors, 4 seats, 60 km/h, 5 liters per 100 km, 50 kg of luggage. Another advantage of the 2CV was its low price of 185,000 francs, while its competitor, the 4CV, sold for 285,000 francs. The 2CV was so ingeniously conceived that it became a commercial success, and is now considered an automotive myth. This 2CV is a 1952 type A, chassis 29874. We've been able to trace its history back to 1953, the year it was registered in Isère. Its owner kept it for 46 years, until it was sold to the second owner in 1998. In 2017, he sold it to a German enthusiast. The latter restored it (no invoice) before selling it to our collector in 2020. It's rare to find a 2CV type A with a known history. A mythical model, this one is waiting for a new collector to get it back on the road. Acquired in 2020, the car immediately became part of the museum collection. Since then, it has remained at a standstill, and needs to be put back on the road. 1952 Citroën 2CV Type A Chassis number 29874 French registration document Rare Type A The original deuche Good condition To be put back on the road The Citroën 2CV should have been launched in 1939, but the Second World War forced the French manufacturer to postpone the launch of its very cheap car.

1912 CLEMENT BAYARD AC4 AL Series 13483 Collector's grey card 15 000 / 20 000€ Adolphe Clement Bayard was a bulimic entrepreneur who, in the course of his life, tackled virtually every field of mechanical engineering: cycles, aircraft, airships and, finally, automobiles. After a first foray into tires, when he obtained the Dunlop license in France, Clement Bayard made several investments in various manufacturers before launching his own firm. Named after him, Bayard's production was aimed at the middle classes, with an emphasis on small and medium-sized cars. The example we present here is an AC4AL. It has been part of the same collection for over 25 years. The engine has been rebuilt and has been removed from the car. The connections need to be finalized before we can take advantage of this beautiful ancestor for rallies reserved for them. 1912 CLEMENT BAYARD AC4 AL Series 13483 Collector's registration 15 000/ 20 000€ Adolphe Clement Bayard was a workaholic entrepreneur, and in the course of his life he tackled virtually every field of mechanical engineering: cycles, airplanes, airships and finally automobiles.
