One off žaba by Henri Chapron se prodaja.
Cena: 259.000€
This Chapron Majesty Spécial is a real one-off, built by Henri Chapron Carrossier, commissioned by a French banker. Of course, every Majesty is rare, because only 27 were produced. Experts say that 10 of them are left, and the Spécial is by far the most remarkable one of the 10.
The banker had quite specific demands. He wanted the Majesty to have a raised roof and extended 'suicide doors', so he could generously enter the car. The front doors are shortened; the driver was probably not very tall. Privacy is also important, so the limousine was equipped with an electrically operated separating window.
An extensive file is present. I have already spent two evenings enjoying it (thanks to Google Translate, time for a French for Dummies course). For instance, there's a copy of Chapron's production file, and there are copies of the bill and the correspondence between the client and Henri Chapron. The letters from the banker are particularly fun to read. It was a critical costumer who had Chapron carry out a decent number of modifications just before and after delivery.
The quote and invoice specify the following options:
- Fully painted in metallic paint
- Shortened front doors with front hinges
- Extended back doors with back hinges
- Electrically operated separation glass with toughened glass
- Two ashtrays in the back
- Electric clock in the back
- Power windows in the back doors
- Fog lights front
- Becker Mexico radio with power antenna
- English leather
- Modified rear wheel housings
- Special fuel tank under the back seat
- Heating in the back (-15° heater)
- Two outside mirrors
A German collector added the car to his collection of Citroëns in 2001. The Majesty has been restored at the highest level between 2006 up to and including 2009. It is a trip back in time, it's like that car is ready for delivery at Chapron's. The Majesty has only been driven 500 km after restoration. The car is still 'good as new'.
During the restoration, originality has always been the guiding principle, which truly shows. For example, Connolly leather was selected, which is similar to the English leather that was ordered back in the days. The colour of the carpet fits perfectly with the leather. It looks exactly like it did before delivery to the original owner.
An excellent opportunity for your collection, and also a great investment!

Tota je pa osnova za thalio. mater je grda
Avto je narejen za luksuzen prevoz, torej so osnovne linije spremenjene, zaradi gospodov z klobuki...zato ni več eleganten, kot izvirnik.
Mater pa ima neki šmek, meni je zelo všeč. Stanje, pa je perfektno in še več od tega!
Za potnike je dobro poskrbljeno, šofer pa nima ravno prilagodljivega delovnega mesta.
Valjda da nam ni nobenemu všeč če pa pride 260K €...
Ne glede na ceno, je grda. Zanimiva, ampak grda. Super ohranjena( verjetno obnovljena), ampak grda.
Saj piše da je bil avto obnovljen. Tole je "kar nekaj"... Èe bi bil to cabrio bi bila druga, ampak takšna cena za tole... Moraš biti patološki ljubitelj in hkrati imeti res mnogo preveč denarja...
Ma avto je super, ampak cena je tudi za resne zbiratelje, ki imajo peneze visoka...
Ne vem zakaj bi bila "kar nekaj". Èe znam(o) brat, je zagotovo to bolj redek avto od Cabrio variante. Obnovljena je tudi. Kdor si jo lahko privošči - super. Kdor si je ne more - pa naj raje molči kot da dokazuje basen o kislem grozdju.
Jaz sem tudi hotel napisat da mi je mal hecna,sam sedaj ne upam,da ne bo citroenovc hud.
Cena je pač na nivoju starodobnika v takšnem stanju, glede na posebnosti in redkosti avta. Jebi ga mi se lahko samo slinimo, to je za one "drugega vesolja".
