Description
CITROËN 5 HP TORPEDO 1924
VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER : 102391
The 1924 Citroën 5 HP Torpédo embodies the innovative and accessible spirit of French motoring in the 1920s. Designed by Citroën to democratise the private car, its mechanical simplicity, light weight and low maintenance costs made it a particularly popular model with a wide public. With its characteristic torpedo silhouette, open and uncluttered, the 5 HP offered an authentic driving experience, reminiscent of the pleasure and freedom of the early days of the motor car. Handy and economical, it was perfectly suited to the roads of the time. Today, this little Citroën with its timeless charm has become an icon, much appreciated by collectors for its unique character and its major role in the history of the motor car. Video of its 4-cylinder rotary engine available on request. File of over 40 photos available on request. List of recent work available on request (2025: over 6,000 euros worth of work). Same family since 1969. French Carte Grise Collection. 40,500 kms on the clock
