The Citroën 2CV or 'deux chevaux' (two horsepower) was an
economy car produced by the French car maker Citroën from
1948-1990. It was technologically advanced and innovative but with
uncompromisingly utilitarian and unconventional looks. Its
deceptively simple Bauhaus inspired bodywork belied the sheer
quality of its underlying engineering. It was designed to move the
French peasantry on from horses and carts and is considered one of
Citroën's most iconic cars. In 1953. 'Autocar' in a technical
review of the car. wrote of. ". the extraordinary ingenuity of
this design. which is undoubtedly the most original since the Model
T Ford". It was described by CAR magazine journalist and author L.
Setright as "the most intelligent application of minimalism ever to
succeed as a car. " It was designed for low cost. simplicity of use. br/>versatility. reliability. and off-road driving. For this it had a
light. easily serviceable engine. extremely soft. long travel
suspension (with adjustable ride height). high ground clearance and
for oversized loads. a car-wide canvas sunroof.

French Grey paintwork. is testament to how full of character these
iconic cars are. Supplied with a V5. 12 months' MoT road test

history. invoices and receipts. this represents very good value.
Jump into this 86' Special and you cannot help but smile as you
drive and. interestingly. everyone tends to smile back at you; a
wonderful way to own one of the most iconic classic cars in the
world.
