  1. woohoo u lot are well equipped arent you!!! Nev seen that BB cab before. Have seen one with the real fold back roof. Up close you can tell mine is a custom. Hmmm, might have to start searching urope for a real deal also......what can i say, im in love!!! I'd still like to trace my baby back to where and why she was built as per what Colin has been saying.
  2. Cool, i hadn't even thought of that but now it seems obvious. I agree totally that i'm sure many classic car owners want to know where it all started. At least be able to point me in the right direction. I've been very lucky in owning this car, and AX be it but when I first decided I wanted a convertible one the initial was more a wish - 'i wish Citroen made a cabriolet version of this.' Flyly befriending an owner of one who lives only an 8 hour drive away from me I put down my first dibs. I've owned 6 AX's in my short lifetime including the Forte, GT and GTi but this has been the best by far. Before getting this pre-built custom i lost patience and purchased a 1.1 Forte to build one of my very own. The project took so long that I bought the pre-build and sold the project on. I know my story, and i know Chris' story (he is the previous owner) but I can't help but feel there is so much more that the car just can't tell me. I'm not sad and lonely, I promise, just nostalgic and very sentimental when it comes to the little AX.
  3. Hello everyone I'm a noobie with a very old and very special Citroen. And not unlike many of the adults today I would like to know where it came from and why it all started. This has proved difficult to say the least. I own a 1990 Citroen AX Convertible. Coach built 18 years ago and not regognised by Citroen themselves. All ive been able to find out is the Citroen made a space age concept AX Cabriolet which now sits in their warehouse in France. A coachworks in the UK did purchase 12 brand new Citroen AX's to convert them to cabriolet but there is no record if the cabs were ever built. I've hunted down only 3 other AX Convertibles in the country and no 2 are built the same. I'm very good friends with the previous owner of the AX but he only had it for 3 years and knows nothing any history. The DVLA are useless at the best of times and everything is confidential. Does anyone have any other ideas on who to contact or where would be a good place to look. I even tried Citroen and they told me the car i drove there in, doesn't exist!!! Here's a picture of how she sits now: http://www.ryanmt.com/media/pictures/AXcabside_medium.jpg
