My 1925 B12 Citroen Deluxe Roadster. It is a extremely rare car was only produced in the years 1925 to 1926. Its predecessors were 5cv. . B2. And B10. The B12 had a stronger chassis eliminating body cracking they also had brakes fitted to the front axle were any of the predecessor models didn't have front brakes they also had shock absorbers fitted and longer front springs to give the occupants a more comfortable ride. From my research in England the Netherlands France and Australia I have found that this particular car is the only one known to exist in its model with this body attached . Their are a very few B12 Citroen around but they are mainly 4 door and coupe body and there is only a few as they were only produced between 1925 and 1926 then the B10 was introduced to keep up with Henry Ford and his introduction of the A model Ford. My car is in extremely good condition it was totally restored in the 80. then left locked in a shed I don't no what happened to the person that restored the car. I purchased the car after it had had 2 owners for a short period of time .
