HISTORY :
The first owner rapidly became ill after only covering 2000kms. Being meticulous, he even ordered a 5th alloy wheel and looked after the GSA at the back of his garage. On his death, his family continued caring for it then decided in 2000 to use it for a few hundred kilometers per annum. In 2007, a Citroen fan learnt of its existence during the technic check of his XM. He succeeded in buying it and only drove 400kms before selling it on to me near Angouleme.
