Citroën BX, comfortabel kassucces

In the book "Citroën BX: comfortabel kassucces", author Thijs van der Zanden describes the history and background of the Citroën BX. You can say many things about this Citroën, but not that it was a car without merits. Citroën’s mid-range model excelled in comfort, road holding, practicality, interior space, competitive pricing and lightweight construction. Moreover, with the BX, Citroën made a huge leap forward in terms of quality. The sharply contoured bodywork represented a radical break with all the brand’s design traditions, yet with its futuristic dashboard, streamlined design and hydropneumatic suspension, the BX was still a true Citroën.

Over the years, variants such as an estate, a version with automatic transmission, various diesel models and all manner of sporty versions and special editions contributed to its continued success, so that the BX ultimately not only helped the ailing Citroën get back on its feet, but also went down in history as one of the most successful Citroëns ever. In this Citroën book, you’ll find the complete history of the BX, including overviews of available body colours, upholstery fabrics, price lists and production figures. A must-have for the true enthusiast.
