The basic design of France's famous 2CV - "Deux cheveux" - was conceived before the Second World War. It was designed to be cheap to make and run, simple to use, reliable (even off-road) - and versatile. With its canvas roll-back roof, it could be used as a car, van or truck. A s France's first cheap mass-produced car, it was perfect for the peasant farmer who wanted to move on from a donkey cart! Nearly 9 million of them were produced between 1948 and 1990, making the "2CV" an instantly recognizable icon of France. |
