636-600-4600 Looking for a classic yet simple European economy car
that is not a VW Beetle? Or, to put it another way, are you
interested in owning a car similar to what Roger Moore and Carole
Bouquet used in the James Bond film, "For Your Eyes Only?"
MotoeXotica Classic Cars is pleased to present this super cute 1979
Citro�n 2CV 6. Finished in correct Espandon Gris (Gray), the car's
paint and trim are in overall great condition, however the grille
is still in original condition. The car's windows are clear and
intact and please note that on both front side windows, the bottom
sections flip up. The remaining windows are fixed. The car's lights
are clear and intact while the headlights are adjustable. This
handsome 2CV was a recent recipient of a correct cosmetic
restoration and looks stunning on the open road! The car's bodywork
is straight and the correct paint work has been recently done. The
car's entire black, canvas roll-back roof looks great. It can be
opened halfway so only the front seats catch full sun, or it can be
fully rolled back so anyone in the back seat can catch some rays as
well. The engine bay is quite tidy and still contains the original
paint, the battery appears new and the cargo area is clean,
includes a full-size spare tire, a jack, and is in great shape. The
car's bumpers look great and fit tightly to the body. Under the
hood is a 602cc horizontally opposed, air-cooled two-cylinder
engine (M28) with a single Solex 26/35 carburetor mated to a
four-speed manual transmission. This Gallic four-seater rolls on
Firestone F-560 radials, size 135R15, at all four corners. One
thing Citro�n is known for is a plush ride, and the 2CV was no
different. One of the car's design requirements was that the
customer should be able to drive eggs across a freshly-plowed field
without breaking them. Inside, the gray front bucket and rear bench
seats with their crosshatch patterned upholstery, are in excellent
condition. There're floor mats instead of carpeting, the two-spoke
factory steering wheels looks good, while the inner door liners are
in satisfactory shape and the instrument panel is in very good
order. There is no radio in this car. Conceived by Citro�n
Vice-PresidentPierre Boulangerto help motorize the large number of
farmers still usinghorsesand carts in 1930s France, the 2CV has a
combination of innovative engineering and utilitarian,
straightforward metal bodywork� initially corrugated for added
strength without added weight.The 2CV featured low cost; simplicity
of overall maintenance; an easily servicedair-cooled
engine(originally offering 9horsepower); low fuel consumption; and
an extremely long-travel suspensionoffering a soft ride andlight
off-road capability. Often called "an umbrella on wheels," the
fixed-profile convertible bodywork featured a full-width, canvas,
roll-backsunroof, which accommodated oversized loads and until 1955
reached almost to the car's rear bumper. Notably,Michelinintroduced
and first commercialized theradial tirewith the introduction of the
2CV. Manufactured in France between 1948 and 1988, more than 3.8
million 2CVs were produced. A 1953 technical review
inAutocardescribed "the extraordinary ingenuity of this design,
which is undoubtedly the most original since theModel T Ford."In
2011,The Globe and Mailcalled it a "car like no other."Motoring
writerL. J. K. Setrightdescribed the 2CV as "the most intelligent
application of minimalism ever to succeed as a car,"and a car of
"remorseless rationality." The 2CV was outlived by contemporaries
such as theMini(out of production in 2000),Volkswagen
Beetle(2003),Renault 4(1992),Volkswagen Type 2(2013) andHindustan
Ambassador(originally a 1950sMorris Oxford), (2014). Those seeking
something simple, economical and slightly whimsical will enjoy this
car's Gallic charms. You can be certain you won't see anything else
