THE CAR: The Citroën CX was an executive car
produced by French automaker CITRÖEN from 1974 to 1991. Almost 1.2 million CXs were sold during its 16 years of production. The CX was voted European Car of the Year in 1975, but was never available in North America. The designation "CX" is derived from the scientific symbol for drag coefficient, drawing attention to cars of aerodynamic design, which was uncommon at that time.
A wide variety of choices was available for buyers of the CX. There were three body styles, including an Estate car, and five engine choices, from 2.0L to 2.5L (diesel). These were also offered with different 3-, 4-, or 5-speed manual or automatic transmissions.
THE IMAGES: (a) the used stamp on cover; (b) the cover front; (c) an example of the stamp in mint condition (NOT included in this offer); (d) the back of the cover.
