Citroën 2CV - from country car to style icon

The Citroën 2CV was a huge success. Millions were sold around the world, all offering the same proverbial comfort, low weight, simple yet indestructible engineering, and a wealth of practical features.

These are the qualities that made the “ugly duckling” so beloved by families, roadside tourists, world travelers, campers, firefighters, hippies, roadside assistance crews, cameramen, adventurers, frugality champions, shopkeepers, museum directors, creative types, sun worshippers, police officers, youth hostel guests, duck racers, investors, advertisers, Christmas tree delivery drivers, music lovers... In this little book (which is also fun if you’re not a car enthusiast), they pass before you in a long procession.
