Citroën CX – the Break Service as the utility version of the hydropneumatic executive car, four-cylinder engines of 1,995 to 2,500 cm³, unladen weights of 1,300 to 1,720 kg, built in Rennes
This page gathers Citroën CX models kept in the register as commercial vehicles – above all the Break Service versions of the CX, presented in 1974 as the successor to the DS and offered from 1976 also as an estate (Break). The Service suffix marks the utility version of the estate tailored to company and public-authority fleets, without a rear bench, giving the postal service, utilities and trades businesses a flat load floor at full payload. The CX was built at the Rennes-La Janais plant, with the hydropneumatic suspension typical of Citroën that kept a constant ride height even under full load; D in the model names marks the diesel engines, RD the turbocharged diesel, TRD and TRI the stronger petrol variants with injection or turbo.

The register lists here 16 versions with four-cylinder engines of 1,995 to 2,500 cm³, unladen weights from 1,300 to 1,720 kg, gross weights from 1,800 to 2,190 kg and widths from 1,630 to 1,780 mm.
The CX Break Service was for years the backbone of public-authority and company fleets in France, combining the payload of a light commercial with the ride comfort of a saloon; the body, shaped for low drag by Robert Opron, is also regarded as aerodynamically advanced for its time.
On any CX, the hydropneumatics above all count – the nitrogen spheres, LHM fluid and main cylinder – along with rust on the sills and boot floor, the condition of the injection system on the petrol engines and of the injection pump on the diesels; parts supply today runs mainly through CX specialists and Citroën clubs.
