Owning a classic Citroen is a privilege and a passion, requiring dedicated care and expert attention. At Chandler Motor Company, we specialize in preserving the charm and performance of these timeless vehicles. Here are the answers to common questions about classic Citroen ownership and maintenance.
๐ ๏ธ How often should I service my classic Citroen?

Keeping fluid levels in check is vital for your Citroenโs performance. Essential fluids include:
- Engine oil: Protects the engine from wear.
