Vintage '69 (Update: B14 or Kegresse? And a 5 HP)

Reg Harris came across this photo in a special 1969 edition of "Le Double Chevron" magazine, celebrating 50 years of Citroen. These are posed 1969 photos, but Citroen frequently uses young lady models in advertising their cars in 1920's & 30's. Can you tell us which exact models were involved? We're talking about the metal models of course.  (collection Reg Harris)

Glad some noticed that there were cars in the photos. The cars are a 1928 B14F Cabriolet, the last of the B series and a 5cv Trefle (three seater). So Clive is close to being correct, except that 5hp (RAC rating) is different from the french power rating in cv.

Re Cristian's comment, seems all Citroen bumper bars were add-ons in the B series. The Kegress was produced over many models up to 1937 on the rear wheel drive commercial units.

The car is a Citroën B14 and not a Kégresse. More info about Kégresse models can be found at: http://kegresse.dk

Looks like a B14 1928 with the girl in trousers and a 5hp 1923/4 two seater with the girl in a skirt

The front bumper indicates a Kegresse. I hope the both modells are today in the same good shape !
