the iconic Citroen 2CV
(launched in 1948 at the Paris Motor Show )

I had a blue convertible one when I was a student in London and
travelled the length and breadth of the UK
and Europe - slowly but surely
(they're surprisingly robust)
.
A friend of mine calls it a "marmite car", i.e
you either it love or hate it !
.
See here
for a fun video which is well worth watching for a laugh...
.
I'd love to know what you think...
What nostalgy! I remember some friends of mine had the 2CV! Thank you for your nice comment!

Thanks Fab French for letting me know there's a problem with my link - I've added a different video that's a real laugh instead (I'm unable to get the original one to work unfortunately).

RépondreSupprimerSuch fun! Is it a French rite of passage to own one of these at some stage in your life?
RépondreSupprimerMeredith xo.
I love them too! (not only by chauvinism!) but if I could have one right here right now I would and could show off on the english roads!
