- The 1955 Citroën 11BL (Traction Avant Légere) is a classic French saloon, part of a pioneering, avant-garde series (1934–1957) known for its revolutionary front-wheel drive, unitary body construction, and independent suspension.
- The 11BL features a 1.9-litre 4-cylinder engine, a 3-speed gearbox, and a lighter, narrower, more nimble body than the standard 11CV
- Right-hand drive versions were built under licence in Slough and were known as 'Light 15' and 'Big Fifteen'
- This French-built, left-hand drive example was first registered and used overseas before being imported to the UK in 1981. Appears to have been well restored at some point and acquired by its current owners in 2007
- Given the nickname Maigret (as many were) after the famous television detective series Maigret
- Often finished in black, however, Cream really suits the car's purposeful yet elegant styling
- Supplied with paperwork from the current ownership including invoices and MOTs
- This Citroën 11BL offers restored presentation and genuine character, appealing to those seeking an individual and engaging classic saloon.
