Only CX Athena in New Zealand

Purchased brand new in Singapore on the 30th of December 1981 for 47,223 SGD (92,364.08 NZD in today's money / still got the original purchase receipt for this car) Shipped to New Zealand after its owner immigrated to Auckland in August 1998. In 2016 the original owner left the country and left the Citroen behind. The next owner re-registered the vehicle on the 6th of April 2018.

Finished in gold, with optional rear louvre, contrasting velour interior, this is indeed a very striking car in a desirable condition. The two previous owners were very meticulous in her upkeep. She drives and stops as it should. The car has the original workshop manual, original brochures and a few spares, should they ever be required. These lovely cars are becoming very rare to find in this condition, the interior is years ahead of its time, with plush seating, perfect carpets, electric windows, stereo, and all dials and switches/air conditioning working perfectly.

Recently has the front spheres replaced at bishops garage in Auckland, and will be going back shortly to get the driveshaft seals replaced. Mechanically very good for its age.

The car has been repainted in the duration of its life and the paint overall is in very good condition, there are a couple areas that will need attention at some point (rear passenger door, and end of driver's lower C pillar) An original great knob is currently on its way and will be sold with the car. The number plate will not be sold with the car.

Super cool car, very sad to see it go, will miss the attention she gets on the road.
