The Appeal
If you're looking for pure joy in four-wheeled form, forget about Ferraris and Lamborghinis and get yourself a 2CV. You can drive a 2CV flat-out without endangering your license; it displaces corners with biblical quantities of body roll, and as every 2CV fan will tell you, it can transport a basket of eggs across a ploughed field with no drama. Behind all these quirks is some seriously clever engineering, dreamed up as a secret project during the dark days of World War Two.
Late-production examples such as this 1986 2 CV6 Special are increasingly sought after, benefiting from the refinements introduced over the model's remarkable four-decade production run.
The galvanised chassis fitted to this car is a significant upgrade that addresses the primary structural vulnerability of the 2CV platform. The vendor describes it as being in very good condition and reports that it drives very well. image.png1.29 MB
