AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
GENERAL:
A rare opportunity for lovers of French elegance: this first-series Citroën CX with the coveted chrome bumpers impresses with its exceptionally well-maintained condition. The Youngtimer comes from the previous owner, an older gentleman who has tended and cared for the vehicle for years. A special highlight is the official status as a "Veteran vehicle" in the Swiss vehicle registration document – a seal of approval that requires a far stricter and more precise official control than, for example, a standard H-kudos appraisal. Following a bereavement, this piece of automotive passion is now for sale.
BODYWORK & PAINT:
The bodywork is in very good condition and still appears to carry the original paint. The chrome shines superbly all around, and the windows are free of cracks or stone chips. The vehicle is completely rust-free; welding work is not required. The gloss of the paint is already very good and could be further perfected with a polish.
Note: The left front fender shows slight waviness near the door crease. This is only visually noticeable, does not impair function, and does not require immediate repair (see close-up photo).
TECHNICAL DATA:
The hydraulics typical of Citroën make the body sit perfectly high and low; the system operates flawlessly. Mechanically the car is in very good condition, as confirmed by the Swiss vehicle inspection (MFK) with veteran status. The engine starts reliably, is rev-happy, and the transmission shifts smoothly – even the "kickdown" when accelerating hard responds immediately. On 05.05.2026 the exhaust test was renewed and a new windshield wiper was installed.
Note: The starter previously tended to stick after longer periods of inactivity, which has not occurred in the last two months of regular use.
INTERIOR:
The interior presents in a well-preserved original state appropriate for its age. The upholstery, headliner, and carpet have always been well cared for and show a very nice appearance. The door panels have no defects. All electrical functions – including the power sunroof and window lifts – as well as the radio, heater, and all gauges operate flawlessly.
DOCUMENTS:
The vehicle is delivered with extensive documentation confirming its history without gaps:
* Swiss vehicle registration with entry "Veteran vehicle".
* Service booklet and user manual.
* Swiss emissions documents.
* Repair manual as well as various repair invoices.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
A viewing in Fällanden near Zurich (Switzerland) is explicitly welcome and can be arranged by appointment. Collection should take place within a week after the auction ends in Fällanden.
In addition to the vehicle, the buyer will receive a car cover for a C5 (Pyjama) as well as a spare front light. Tires, brakes, and suspension are in good condition; no significant leaks were detected. Thanks to the veteran status, the vehicle in Switzerland only needs to be inspected every 6 years, underscoring the exceptional quality of this classic. Get in and drive away!"

However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road.
