Dreamy holidays, unusual weekends, and in any case
speedy travel and comfortable camping are the aims the
designers of that exceptional camping-car, the CX
“Penthouse” admit to having pursued. _
It is a special version of the Citroen CX GTi, whose
rear portion has been completely reconditioned by
lengthening the platform and fitting a fibre-glass
compartment on a double axle fitted with Tissier-system
hydropneumatic suspension.
THE FASTEST IN THE WORLD
With the CX GTi’s injection engine, this six- wheeler
camping-car is not only the fastest in the world, it is
also one of the most comfortable.
The forward compartment retains the layout and fittings
of a CX GTi, but has only one door on the left, against
two saloon-doors on the right side.

LIVING ROOM AT THE REAR
The completely insulated rear compartment, fitted out
by Dubicamper, is divided into two parts : a toilet area
and a living area.
The toilet area comprises a washbasin, a bidet bath, a
shower and a WC. A 44-gal. water tank supplies the taps.
Sullage is collected in a special holding tank.
BED AND TEA FOR TWO
The living area includes a double bed - which in
daytime converts into a divan - a table, a gas cooker, a
refrigerator, a sink, an “Espresso” coffee-maker, a 3
stereo system with tuner, amplifier and cassette deck, a
radio-alarm-clock, a television set and a telephone.
The bellows-mounted roof can be raised and lowered
electrically. It makes it possible to move about
standing up when the vehicle is at rest.
The living quarter’s electric supply comes from an
independent generator.
They have their own air conditioning system and heating.
