- Rare saloon commercial version
- Colour of the catalogue

At the 1925 Paris Motor Show, under the nave of the Grand Palais, André Citroën presents the new B10. This car concealed a major innovation, as it inaugurated the "all-steel" body, following the licence (and the tools) given by the American Budd. In 1929, the C4 finally offered a more modern and balanced design, anchored in the coming decade. Its engine, 40% more powerful, was also more robust thanks to a 3-bearing crankshaft. This was also the year that the new saloon commercial was introduced, which corresponds to the current shape of our estate cars. "Two cars in one", the advertisement says. "Elegant car with removable rear seat and upholstery that can be instantly transformed into a van for a 500 kg payload. Ideal for industrialists, shopkeepers, farmers, camping or hunting enthusiasts, rural landowners far from any station...".
The car we are presenting was owned by Maurice and Gilbert Bataille, famous stuntmen, seen in numerous films, notably under the direction of Rémi Julienne. This C4, which was probably partially restored in the 1990s, is to be finished. Its engine is not blocked.

This car will be sold by auction by AGUTTES Auction House, in Neuilly-sur-Seine, France, on June the 20th, 2021.
