The Citroen 2 CV was built untill the 1990.Nearly 4 million 2CVs were produced,and over 1 million of the van version known as Fourgonnette.You paid around £450 for a new one in 1950 now a refurbished one will cost you £11,000.plus

There are still plenty of 2CV driving round France especially at the weekend.I always stop to take a photo when we see one

The 2CV was introduced at the 1948 Paris Motor Show and became an instant hit with its quirky charm, innovative features and low cost.

The 2CV had an air-cooled, two-cylinder engine that was mounted in the front and drove the front wheels. It had a four-speed manual gearbox, a long-travel suspension system that gave it a smooth ride on rough roads, and a canvas roof that could be rolled back to accommodate large loads. The 2CV was also very economical, consuming only 3 litres of fuel per 100 kilometres.

The original model that produced 9 hp had a top speed of 64 km/h (40 mph), while the latest and fastest versions reached up to 115 km/h (71 mph). The 2CV became a symbol of French culture and lifestyle, and is still loved by many enthusiasts today.
