A rare and magnifique 1958 Citroen 2CV AZU Fourgonnette.

MODEL HISTORY
Conceived by an extraordinary design brief by Citroen MD Pierre-Jules Boulanger in 1936 to enable four farmers to drive 50 kg of farm goods to market at 31mph in and across muddy unpaved roads if necessary. The car would use no more than 3 litres of fuel to travel 100 km (78 mpg). Most famous, was the requirement be able to drive across a ploughed field while carrying eggs without breaking them! The TPV (Toute Petite Voiture – Very Small Car) project was abandoned in September 1939 when the French government declared war on Germany. Finally revealed in 1948 the Deux Chevaux was an instant commercial success with a five-year waiting list and second-hand Tin Snails costing more than new ones! Numerous variants of the 2CV in its 42-year production run included the AZU Fourgonnette (Van) which was a familiar sight for many years and commonly used by the French Post Office ‘La Poste’ and EDF (Électricité de France).

EQUIPMENT
Steel corrugated body panels, twin side-hinged rear doors, rear hinged side doors with openers, spare wheel compartment, rear grab handles, triple side rear glass panes, nearside door mirror, steel slatted grille with chevon emblem, mudguard flaps, one rear light, side repeaters, rear reflectors, removable seats, batterie gauge, headlamp adjustment control knob, pull starter, choke, column mounted Jaeger speedometer with gear change markings, horn, speedometer driven wipers with manual override, scuttle ventilator, sun visors, rear view mirror.

EXTERIOR
Wonderfully simplistic this 2CV AZU Fourgonnette A-Series has had a full restoration which can be seen from every angle. Correct to the original factory build, virtually every body panel bar the front wings, front doors and A-panels have the corrugated construction which was an ingenious design by Citroen to add strength to allow ultra-thin steel for weight saving purposes. A spotless underside reveals perfect structural integrity and the Grey bodywork looks fantastic with some markings, touched in scratches, and imperfections but far superior to most commercial vehicles. The obvious build methods falling far short of modern-day manufacturing excellence, verging on the hilarious, just as they rolled off the production line! The one tail light and rear reflectors resonate with a simpler motoring era designed for the masses and suicide doors enable easy access. The six side windows were a feature of many ‘Weekend’ conversions and the original GLAQauto Securite etched panes remain with new rubbers fitted. The grille logo comprising the famous chevrons and single door mirror remain intact. A truly delightful example of this Gallic icon.

INTERIOR
Utilitarian brilliance is demonstrated everywhere from the surprisingly comfortable removable seats with tubular steel frames and rubber band springing to the cable/hand operated windscreen wipers! The Jaeger batterie gauge still functions as does Veglia speedometer. The grey steering wheel is correct for a post 1957 vehicle as is the presence of a speedometer light for post 1954 and side repeater post 1955 production. The rubber mat is easily lifted allowing all laid bare metal flooring to be visible thus revealing the quality workmanship below. The Fourgonnette cargo area is finished to the same exterior standard as is the clever side compartment containing the spare wheel. A most intelligent application of minimalism in vehicle design, or more simply, a brilliantly method of transporting one’s baguette, wine and cheese!

ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
The air-cooled, flat-twin, four-stroke 425cc engine is the original factory unit as fitted to this 1958-year model complete with AZU stamped engine plate with number clearly legible. The wonderfully clean engine has block stampings as well as the original numbered chassis plate which again corresponds with a 1958 AZU Fourgonnette. Prime the carburettor and the engine thrums into life at the pull of the switch and settles to a surprisingly smooth idle ready to exploit the ferocious 12.5hp performance! The transmission is dash mounted and has fours speeds which are easy to use once the uniqueness is familiarised.

WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
Five correct grey steel wheels support expensive Michelin 135R 400 tyres all round with masses of tread and no cracks. The front inboard drum brakes and rear drums make this car slightly slower than the speed it eventually reaches.

HISTORY FILE
A copy of the Certificat D’Immatriculation (registration certificate) confirms first registration in the Billy Commune in the Allier Department, Central France on the 21st March 1958. The first registered owner was an Andre Fillion whose profession was very fittingly noted as a Cultivateur (Farmer)! The car remained in France for over 60 years and following a full restoration it was imported to the UK by the only UK owner, a gentleman also fittingly named Mr French! This 2CV is fully UK registered as a Historic Vehicle but prior to leaving France it was fully restored by Mark Griffin who has been a 2CV restoration specialist for over 40 years and is well known to the Citroen Car Club and 2CVGB. Highly respected and well-known within the 2CV fraternity, Mr Griffin is enthusiastically applauded by the UK’s leading Citroen Guru and Chairman of 2CVGB. Photographs of the restoration are held in the history file.

The current owner, Mr French, sourced the car from Mark Griffin in 2018 having searched for a long time for the right vehicle. Mr French had always wanted a 2CV Fourgonnette having had fond memories of childhood holidays to Northern France where these vans were a common sight, many in Grey! Wanting to concentrate on his motorbike collection, Mr French having now scratched his Fourgonnette itch has decided to sell the vehicle to the next lucky custodian who will certainly appreciate this magnifique example.

The factory optional automatic gearbox is perfect in operation and offers even more serene cruising.

Registered new on 25th August 1994 by Citroen UK Ltd, Slough, the car was then sold to the only other owner, Mr Bryan Cedar when it was just four months old. He cherished the vehicle and the exceptional condition and low mileage of just 21,806 are very special credentials to car collectors. An impressive history folder containing a huge number of main dealer and Citroen specialist invoices to document the fastidious ownership this car has enjoyed. Every MOT certificate dating back to the first in 1997 further validates the mileage and the full Citroen book pack with service booklet is present. There are two Citroen remote keys plus master key and dealer fobs. To complete the history file is an original Xantia range brochure, Haynes manual and even the supplying dealer gifted fragrance pouch!

This Mk2 VTR is fitted with the revised 97bhp four cylinder 1.6L 8 valve engine.  A top speed of 120mph and 0-62mph in 9.4 seconds is quoted and this lively little car is huge fun to drive.  The engine bay remains exactly as intended and displays factory stickers, plates and panel stampings.  The five-speed manual transmission offers light and direct changes with a sporty feel.

WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
The factory fitted 14” Toulouse alloy wheels remain in excellent condition with only light markings and no kerb damage.  Brand new quality Dunlop Sport bluresponse 185/55 R14 tyres were fitted in January 2019.  The servo assisted brakes with discs all round provide safe assured stopping power.

HISTORY FILE
Registered new on the 3rd September 2001 by Citroen Main Dealer Broads of Chalfont Ltd, this example has covered just 52,519 miles from new with three owners in total.  The full service history consists of the original service book containing all dealership guarantee stamps plus 10 service stamped entries, including the latest cambelt change in May 2016 at 46,522 miles.  The full original Citroen document wallet containing all handbooks, guides and point of sale literature as well as the original PDI check sheet.  A further folder contains MOT certificates and maintenance invoices, and there are two original Citroen keys present.  Representing a very rare example of an often modified and abused hot hatch, the classic car world is quickly realising the increased desirability of sporting Saxo’s with good examples very difficult to find.

HISTORY FILE
Production of the Citroen Saxo came to an end in 2003 with the final run of cars being the VTR/VTS models, the last of which rolled off the production line in September 2003.  This very late example was registered on 24th October 2003 by Citroen Main Dealer John Wilding Ltd of Morecambe.  The first and only registered owner, Mrs Rena Eastwood, was in her sixties when she purchased the car brand new, citing that she wanted something fun and fast!  After covering just 29,751 miles from new and owning the car for almost 15 years, Mrs Eastwood is now in her eighties and sadly ill health has brought about the difficult decision to sell her pride and joy.  Mrs Eastwood, a fascinating lady, is able to reel off important information about the car’s history with amazing detail, and it was her strict insistence that the car was always garaged, to the detriment of her husbands Mercedes which remained outside!  The condition, driving manner and history is a huge credit to her love and dedication for her VTR, it was her wish that the car was sold to an enthusiast which is exactly what KGF Classic Cars did in 2018 selling into a formidable collection of modern classic cars and we are delighted to have the car back to sell to the next discerning buyer.

The history file includes the full Citroen document wallet containing all handbooks, guides and point of sale literature as well as the service book with 10 stamps and original purchase invoice.  Absolutely every MOT certificate is included.  A large file of invoices completes the history file along with both sets of keys and the key code tag.  Representing a very rare example of an often modified and abused hot hatch, this amazing and hugely entertaining Saxo VTR is without doubt one of the best in existence.
