DON'T
OVERLOOK
the
car you
CAN'T OVERTURN
A fast run on a treacherous, greasy, wet road, full of
bends . . . . yet look at those wheel tracks! Not an
inch of deviation anywhere. There is not a car to touch
the Citroen for holding the road ; you can't skid on
corners any more than on the straight, while as to
turning it over . . . it's impossible. And for solid
strength it's absolutely unbeatable! Another wonderful
feature of the Citroen is the unique suspension, which
makes a cart track as smooth riding as a main road.
Taking it all round, it's marvellous value . . .good
looking, takes five people easily, and yet costs as
little as
£228

GREAT
DRIVE ON ALL FRONTS
The greatest drive
of all is located at the front of every CITROËN.
Great because it kills the motorists' bogey . . .
skidding! Great because it makes high speed
cornering safe! And CITROËN front drive is allied to a
lively o.h.v. engine that saves you money . . .
because the replaceable cylinder barrels eliminate
rebores, reduce oil consumption and improve
cooling. There is a one piece welded steel body
to provide the safest and strongest of all design,
with torsion bar springing and independent wheel
suspension combining to give the most luxurious riding
of our time. Experience it yourself by asking
your dealer for a trial run.

DISTINCTION
with a Difference
The individual and
handsome styling of CITROEN gives a distinction that
marks it apart from all other cars. But in
addition to its external beauty, CITROEN design . . .
still the most modern and most successful over the
last eighteen years . . . sets it in a different
class. Only the fortunate possessors of CITROEN
cars are able to appreciate the surging power - the
superb, safe road-holding - the effortless high
cruising speed - and the wonderful ability that
belongs to CITROEN alone to make a smooth run on any
road.

performance is combined with a dependable "get you
there in comfort" ability, a reassuring feeling of
safe, non-skid running, and a sense of proud
possession of the most advanced and distinctive car of
to-day.

FOR
TRAVELLING FAR...AND FAST
What "The
Autocar" says about the CITROEN SIX
"It is lively,
eager, purposeful, feels taut and solid, allows no
side sway whatever, and travels up to a maximum
exceeding a genuine 80 mph with the same aplomb it
displays in the fifties . . . Ordinary main road
slopes are taken mostly accelerating or holding the 60
or 70 mph which it could obviously maintain all day .
. . Over icy roads, the driver found himself able to
virtually disregard the conditions."
The 2.8 litre
Citroen "Six" has the famous Citroen features of
design, including :- INDEPENDENT FRONT SUSPENSION -
TORSION BAR SPRINGING - INTEGRAL CHASSIS AND BODY -
DETACHABLE CYLINDER BARRELS & FRONT WHEEL DRIVE
