The Appeal

The Citroën 2CV continues to endure with generation after generation of driver. After 42 years of continuous production, it's become a bonafide European icon. A beautifully austere motor that brought car ownership to rural communities of France and beyond, and one that proves so easy to keep and maintain that many still keep them as a classic of choice.

Of course, they're also easy to modify and customise - and with such great availability of parts, many enthusiasts have brought their 2CV into a new way of life.

This particular 1986 car has been customised into a fabulous black-bronze livery, with custom wooden cappings and and a completely new cabin. It's a beguiling, stylish and fearlessly unique example - fully serviced and ready to drive away.
