For Citroën, the Oltcit and Axel were a disaster. Even new ones broke down, leaked oil, parts broke, were plagued by excessive fuel consumption or even spontaneously caught fire.
Historically, however, Oltcit and Axel are very interesting. They are the very last models from the Michelin era: the last designs without influence of Peugeot.
Moreover, the Oltcit and Axel have a long and fascinating development history, which is not only linked to the takeover of Citroën by Peugeot, but is also full of political intrigue and industrial espionage between East and West.
In this book, author Thijs van der Zanden and translator Axel Bornand describe the history of the Oltcit and the Citroën Axel through numerous facts, funny anecdotes and lots of photos, many never published before.
A must for real enthusiast!
