All I know is that it's made with older Eaton Elite aluminium, and that it's so old that it not only has a 1" steerer, but also the down-tube bosses for friction shifters. Is it the same U.S. company that made the well known Centurions? Someone told me that there were another one or two Centurion brands in Europe.
Thanks.

That is not a Western States Imports (US) Centurion. WSI never marketed an aluminum Centurion nor did they have a Kilo in their model lineup. That is probably a German Centurion( centurion bikes: Home [en] )just from the looks of it. They do not have a model Kilo listed but that is probably just because it has been discontinued. There is another Centurion which is a Danish bicycle( Centurion 2010 ) but they just make flat bar bikes. I don't think that it is Danish because of the differences in design.
