(It's a very nice dedeuche!
This is not a question only for the autor of this topic.
)

Why does young people choose 2cv and not 205Gti for example?
I grow in lots of old 2cv and old VW beetles... That's why I only drive beetles or 2cv.
What about you, fellas?

Moved from My low deuche. (L'escargot bleu) topic. Its better to start new topic for
this kind a random questions, not mess up in car topics.

For me

- because they're unusual and don't look like much else on the road, especially Snail type - even normal 2CVs look normal compared to Snails.
- because they're old looking, but not like the majority of old cars in England (i.e. Morris, Austin etc)
- Nostalgic - I always loved seeing battered old Citroens on trips to France when I was young. And it must have had an effect because since I've been old enough to drive I've almost only driven Citroens!


Cheers
Andy

The first car of my grand father was a 2cv.
My father's first car was a 2cv.
