Hi Mike,
I am quite familiar with the CXA Prestige, having owned one for many
years. Mine was black on black, and was quite striking. They are
really gorgeous cars, and have that distinctive Citroen style. The
only complaint is that they are seriously undernourished with that
little four banger, but the manual tranny helps that somewhat. They
are incredibly comfortable, especially at high speeds, and quite nice
to drive. Also, extremely reliable. Can't wait to see photos.

which was the version imported and certified to meet US Federal
specifications. Still has plenty of that French quirkiness
including the hydraulic suspension. The CX series 2 was the last car
fully designed by Citroen before Peugeot took them over. They do not
have the rusting problems of some of the earlier Cits. Owning an
Amphicar provides enough potential rust issues for me.
