Citroën Ami Service / Enterprise

© Copyright: J.Cats.


The Ami service is basically an Ami Break with the rear doors blanked off. The Service (sometimes called Enterprise) was available in two versions:
  • Tolée, with closed steel sides.
  • Vitrée with the same rear windows as on the normal Break.
The Ami Service was built as Ami 6, Ami 8 and Ami Super.

Here are some type names, dates and production figures:

Ami 6 Service03/1968 - 05/1968AMB-S750 approx. built
Ami 6 Service05/1968 - 09/1969AMB2-S
Ami 8 Service09/1969 - 09/1969AMB3-S26630 built
Ami 8 Service09/1969 - 09/1978AMJC ?
Ami Super Service01/1973 - 09/1975AMJH ?801 built

Ami 6:

The prototypes have light ABS plastic (called Kralastic) rear wings and a two-tone paint scheme, using the hollow part on the Ami 6 doors and rear wings. On the production cars the plastic rear wings are replaced by rust-prone steel ones. The two-tone paint is not available on the production versions. From May onwards the Service gets the 35bhp AM2 engine and the Service Tolée appears. In June the Service Vitrée appears.

Ami 8:

The Ami 8 Break (and Service) appears in September 1969 but the Ami 6 Break is still sold up to July 1971. In October 1975 the production of the Ami 8 Service Vitrée is discontinued. In 1977 the Ami 8 Service (Tolée) is renamed Ami 8 Enterprise. In 1979 the production of the Break (and the Enterpise?) is stopped.

Ami Super:

In October 1975 the production of the Ami Super Service is discontinued.
