Begin 1970 klonk een pauze-muziekje, we waren in afwachting van de 2cv4 en 2cv6. Ook bij Cees van der Maat in de showroom in Zwaag zal het geklonken hebben. Dus werd op de valreep door een stel uit Hoorn nog een 2cv AZ met 18pk besteld. Ze gebruikten hem toch alleen maar voor…
In ’68 the Mehari was introduced, a plastic car based on the chassis of the 2CV, or actually the Dyane. In the beginning they also shared that name, Citroën Dyane Mehari. The chassis was shortened slightly, a tubular steel frame was screwed onto it, to which ABS panels were attached with pop rivets.…
Considerations of a soon-to-be ex-owner; This blue lady should not be here… No, she’s supposed to be driving! That is also the reason why this beautiful Dyane is offered. The current driver, with a lot of Citroën love and history, does not make enough meters with it and is therefore doing her a…
We also recycle. Cars regularly return to us, after which we look for a new owner. Each owner adds something to the 2CV, personal adjustments or stories. We found this white 2CV in Germany in 2002, with only 28,000 km on the odometer. It was bought by a couple who got married in…
Imagine storing a daily car, let’s say a Citroën C3 from 2013, in the shed. For later. There is a good chance that few people understand you. Yet this was done very often decades ago. Like with this Dyane. In ’81 it had already had two owners in Terneuzen, the latter decided to…
We sold this 2cv once before in 2009. At that time it had driven 23,000 km. It has had two owners, both of whom took good care of the car in their own way. The first owner bought this little goat (Flemish for 2cv) from dealer Vingerhoets in Antwerp. She mainly used the…
2CVs produced in Belgium always have our special attention. Especially if they were also originally Dutch delivered. The models from the factory in Vorst have nice specific details, for example in the lighting. You will find a lot about it in the book Filles de Forest and on the website of the same…
In the Alps, southeast of Grenoble, near les Deux Alpes, you will find a mountain called La Meije. Also called “finger of God”. Does the finger point to heaven or elsewhere? The bright white, Blanc Meije, of this 2cv will refer to the snow-capped peaks of virgin snow. Unreachable by car, but up…
In the spring of ’61, Citroën introduced a new model between the popular 2CV and DS, the Ami 6. With the growing economy and emancipation, Citroën increasingly focused on female customers. The Ami 6 was promoted as a friend of the French ladies, with a specific “Pour Vous Madame” campaign. The brochure could…
The HY could be ordered from Citroën in a number of different forms. The closed bus, which could then be extended, raised or otherwise converted by various carrossiers. The chassis cab as a basis for even more explicit expression. And the pickup, which was also often extended or covered. This is one with…
The Boullier company from Laval built this HY horse van in ’65. Citroën supplied the chassis cab, a basis on which many coachbuilders developed their skills. Theault and Heuliez also built cattle and horse vans in various forms. This model was intended for smaller horses, the length and height are aimed at this.…
The cars here often have a history elsewhere. But I have known this van for a long time! I met it in ’94, got it technically ready and drove it around for a while. My daughter in the Maxi Cosi on the front seat, secured with a lashing strap, Isofix did not yet…
The Champs de Mars factory branch in Paris arranged cars for foreign customers and other special deliveries. This also applies to this 2CV, a 2CV6 Spécial in Blanc Meije, with a more luxurious Club interior. It was registered on October 11, 1990, a few months after the end of production in Portugal. Its…
This van started its life in yellow, AC 311 Jaune PTT to be precise. For years it delivered the mail in France, with the blue La Poste logo on its side. These 2cvs were often given a second life, for another company, on the farm or elsewhere. This AZU even got a third…
Of the 1213 cars built, this is No. 3. It first came on the road in Paris, where it was deployed for the press introduction. After this, Citroën made it available to Medecin sans Frontières, for a documentary about their work in Africa. The oldest Mehari 4×4 on the road. Citroën introduced the…
We build our 2CVE on our EV chassis. A galvanised frame, containing the batteries. This gives it a nice low center of gravity, the extra weight presses it a little more into the springs providing more comfort. The electric motor has sufficient power and revs to allow you to drive smoothly and quick…
If you started your life in modest white and are making a new start, why not make your presence a bit more brilliant. So we opted for the seventies color Jaune Mimosa with a matching roof and an orange fabric interior. The cheerfulness radiates from this completely new 2cv. This 2cv started its…
A blessing in disguise? This 2cvs life has been on pause for quite a while. It was born on April 26, 1990, on May 30 it was in Brussels at the Belgian importer and on August 24 it found an owner in Mechelen. A while later things went wrong. This goat, its Flemish…
Around 2000, a Dutch enthusiast stumbled across an advertisement in La Vie de l’Auto, in which someone offered a new 2CV for sale. It turned out to be not one, but more than ten. We have to ask the finder again about the reason for putting away so many new cars; were they…
You will find beautiful things on the Gold Coast. In this cas the Côte d’Or department and an Ami 8 from ’71, in a beige shade with depth. Logical, if the color – translated – is Ash Beige. An intriguing type of wood with beautiful flame markings. These markings, with a nice contrast,…
After Franco’s death in ’75, Spain relaxed considerably and there was apparently also some room for cheerfulness, judging by the forget-me-not blue on this Citroën 8? “Sorry, it’s an Ami 8, right?” Yes, for us, but in Spain they did things a little differently. Several details of the earlier French models were extended…
Serge Gevin was hired by Citroën to cheer up 2CVs. Often the sales figures had to be boosted and promotional models worked wonders. It started in ’76 with the SPOT, in orange and white. Then a dark blue Dyane got some white lines and was called Caban. In 1985, after a lot of…
A simple 2cv from a humble region. In the Morvan, 2cvs were often driven up to the last wire, not out of luxury. This AZ too. It was last used on the road in 1993, after which it was only used in the forest to collect firewood. The dented trunk and missing back…
Suppose you are looking for a 2cv from your year of birth, 1951, then you probably had to search hard. Only 14,749 were made that year and only a few remain. This is one of them, you found it! ’51 is the third year of production. In the first 2 years very few…
The baroque line of the Ami 6 did not appeal to everyone in the 1960s, but its unique rear window (Berline) and its space (Break) made it a sales success. With the simplicity of the 2CV and the luxury of the DS, the Ami was a nice mix of them. This Break saw…
No. 34556, 2cv production started to speed up a bit. In ’49 there were only a few hundred built, in ’50 and ’51 a few thousand, now tens of thousands rolled out of the factory in Levallois. The 2cvA, with 375cc and 9hp, was also further developed. This 2cv is one of the…
We have already had many unique 2cvs through our hands. With beautiful stories, special models or from a faraway country. With almost no kilometers on them, from the last day of French or Portuguese production, or from the very first year of construction. This 2cv brings together 3 unique qualities. It has only…
We currently have 3 pieces of AK 350 on the shelves, all good starting points for a (partial) restoration. The years of construction vary from ’67 to ’70, the engines from 25 to 33 hp, the conditions and therefore the prices also differ. Come see if there is something for your ideas, dream…
This 2cv is still quite original. In its paint, details, the first painted license plate. But also in its dents, and completely authentic corrosion. Fortunately, the rust devil has struck selectively, so its beautiful patinated appearance should remain unchanged, in our opinion. In early 1959 it was driven around Versailles, in the then…
From 1964 onwards the Ami 6 could also be ordered in a Break version. It became a success, because people started transporting more and more things, in addition to their family and themselves. For the picnic trip at the weekend, the holiday to the south or just to work on a weekday. The…
From June 6, 1974, Madeleine proudly drove around in her Beige Vanneau Ami 8 Berline. She bought it new and didn’t let it go until 2007. Who owns a car for 33 years these days! For maintenance she drove from one date to another: she lived on rue du 8 mai 1945 and…
With 8 million units, the R4 has beaten the 2CV in production numbers. They have also competed with each other in other areas since 1961, where the medals are divided between both camps. Anyway, we like the R4 too! In the Netherlands, deliveries stopped in ’86. Delivery and production continued in various other…
Restoring it to (almost) new can be a great plan, especially if the car in question is really in need of it. But if you have the choice to simply leave a car as it has been driving around for decades, then that is our preference. This 2cv is an example of that.…
It was once called Dyane 400 in Spain, but here in the Netherlands it identifies as Acadiane. It has integrated here quite well and is now ready for some entertainment. It started its life near Tarragona where it knew two owners. And one more here in the Netherlands. They all took good care…
Mr. Lomans ordered this white 2cv in the luxurious Club model and received it on June 2, 1987. Perhaps he already knew that production in France and therefore imports into the Netherlands would stop. In the autumn, the importer at Stadionplein delivered the last cars, after which some enthusiasts managed to get hold…
