Citroën Traction - The numbers

The Citroën Traction Avant, which remained in production for more than 23 years, has been described in a great many books over the years. Yet this book presents a huge amount of new and previously unknown information. The history of the Traction is told through four key numbers: the serial number, factory number, body number and engine number. Most of the information comes directly from the ultimate and unique source: the old factory records, which list every car that ever left the Citroën factory on Quai de Javel in Paris.

In this book, you will find detailed information about all the different Traction models over the years, including factory codes, production series and much more. With the information in this book, it is possible to identify every Traction far more accurately than before: by its factory number rather than its serial number. The book also reveals new information about the evolution of the different TA models and how they are connected.

This fact book is an important addition to all previously published material and a natural complement to all the enjoyable books on the enthusiast’s bookshelf.
