La Citroën Dyane de mon père (2e édition)

The Dyane was marketed at the end of August 1967. It was slotted between the 2 CV and the AMI6. Its designers considered it to be a modernized 2 CV, equally comfortable, convertible and with overhanging wings like its elder, more practical with its tailgate, more modern with its recessed headlights.

Richly illustrated, this book is dedicated to the famous Citroën Dyane from the years 1967-1983.

  • Richly illustrated, this book traces in detail the history and evolution of the Citroën Dyane.
  • This volume of the collection "La voiture de mon père" is not only a source of in-depth information for the owner, but also a concise guide to originality.
  • The technique, variants, modifications and special versions are described in detail.
  • Contains more than 200 period photos, often unpublished.

La Citroën Ami 6, 8 et Super de mon père

The Ami 6, launched in 1961, presented more innovations than all its competitors combined... What's more, the Ami 6 is an important turning point in the history of the brand. It was the last car to be designed by Flaminio Bertoni, in collaboration with Robert Opron, who would later become the head of styling at Citroën.

Later, the Ami 8 and the Ami Super would continue the evolution of this model. The chevron brand managed to introduce a mid-range model that was effective enough to quickly become the best-selling car in France (over 1.8 million units).
Its launch "Pour vous madame", its production in the ultra-modern Rennes-La-Janais factory, and all the non-series models such as the M 35 with a rotary engine, are reviewed from 1961 to 1979 in this album illustrated with many unpublished photos.

Citroën Ami 6 Kompakt: Alle Fakten und Typen

When the famous DS fell from the sky in 1955, André Lefebvre and Flaminio Bertoni began working on a new project almost at the same time: Citroën urgently needed a mid-range car to remain competitive in the future.
The two did not have much time, as the car was to be ready for series production in 1960.

This book tells the story of the car with the bizarre rear window, provides a typology of all models and helps with practical buying advice from the online magazine Garage 2CV when buying the strange duck. Lots of illustrations, hardback paperback in the well-known "compact" format.
