Description
CITROEN TRACTION 11 BL BERLINE LEGERE AVEC MALLE 1957 VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: 610257 The Citroën Traction Avant 11 BL is one of the most emblematic models in French motoring history. Produced by Citroën, this 1957 light saloon represents the culmination of a revolutionary line that began in the 1930s, famous for its technical innovations and avant-garde styling. The "11 BL", for "11 Légère", is distinguished by its more compact dimensions and understated elegance, while the "with trunk" version adds an extra touch of modernity with its integrated external boot. A true pioneer, the Traction Avant marked its era with technical solutions that were unprecedented for a mass-produced car: front-wheel drive, a monocoque body and exceptional roadholding. These features have enabled it to become a benchmark for comfort, stability and safety. With its flowing lines, low silhouette and timeless allure, the Citroën Traction 11 BL epitomises post-war French automotive refinement. Appreciated by families and public figures alike, it remains a highly sought-after collector's car, a symbol of elegance, innovation and automotive heritage. Video of its 4-cylinder rotary engine available on request. File of over 20 photos available on request. French Collection registration document. 98,500 kms on the clock
