Citroën Traction Avant 15-6 – Restored Condition with Power Steering
A beautifully restored 1950 Citroën Traction Avant 15-6, equipped with power steering for effortless driving comfort.
This stunning Traction Avant, affectionately known as the “spare wheel model” due to its distinctive rear-mounted spare wheel, is a true icon of French automotive history.
Originally delivered in February 1950, this elegant Citroën has remained in the hands of the same passionate owner for more than two decades and has been maintained with exceptional care throughout. The car has been extensively restored in detail, including a rebuilt engine, and presents just as impressively as it drives.
The exterior is in outstanding condition, finished in deep glossy black paint with only minimal signs of use. Chrome trim is beautifully preserved and the front end is enhanced by period-correct auxiliary driving lights. The elegant grille proudly carries the iconic “15 D Six” emblem.
Inside, the cabin offers the charm and comfort expected from a classic French automobile. The front seats have been fitted with new springs, ensuring excellent comfort for years to come. The dashboard features a stylish body-colored two-spoke steering wheel, an elegant beige multi-gauge cluster, refined chrome accents, and the unmistakable Citroën chevrons.
Under the hood lies the impressive 2.9-liter inline-six engine producing approximately 77 horsepower. Thanks to its powerful 2,867cc engine, this Traction Avant keeps up comfortably with modern traffic. The engine has been rebuilt and is in excellent mechanical condition. Starting, shifting, and driving all feel smooth, solid, and reassuring.
Several tasteful upgrades have been carried out to improve reliability and usability. These include a 123 electronic ignition system, a 12V electrical conversion with alternator, while the starter motor and windshield wipers retain their original 6V setup through a converter. The addition of power steering makes this classic exceptionally pleasant and easy to drive.
This Traction Avant is a true queen of the road, fully prepared for stylish and comfortable touring. A rare opportunity for enthusiasts seeking one of the most desirable French six-cylinder classics ever built.
