Only 157 sleeps until Citromobile 2019! That’s less than half a year!
The ‘Citromobile’ event is an annual, large indoor Citroen auto jumble. In recent years it’s been based at Haarlem on the edge of Amsterdam. In 2019 it will take place over the weekend of 4 and 5 May.

The event includes many new old stock and used parts for Citroens of all ages and many of the well known traders and sellers of reproduction parts are there. You can browse new, old stock parts, used parts or buy new reproduction parts.
Watch displays and ask awkward questions.
Go green with envy at the show cars
You can buy whole, restored cars......
....or simply marvel at the wonderful selection of visitors cars lined up in the car park.
A lot of people will be heading over to the Citroen ‘100 year’ celebrations in France in July and I’m assuming that is equally like to include a big auto jumble. However my diary isn’t going to see me there – so I’ve booked up for Citromobile again. And talked Richard Burch into it again too.

From the UK it makes for a great and productive DS weekend. This is how we do it:
- Choose your biggest, spaciest car
- Take the Friday night ferry from Harwich to Hook of Holland
- Good company with like minded souls on board
- A comfortable nights sleep and wake up in Holland.
- A hearty breakfast and an hour or so’s drive up to Haarlem.
- Browse and buy all day
- Camping Saturday night
- More browsing and buying on Sunday - last minute bargains
- Quick dash back to Hook of Holland for the overnight ferry back to the UK
- A comfortable nights sleep
- Arrive back in the UK on bank holiday Monday
- A hearty breakfast
- A hearty breakfast
- Drive home and unload our treasure.
From my wants list, this was some of my haul in 2018:
In the space of 48 hours I found bits that might have taken months or years to find.
Can't wait. I'm going to start a 2019 list
