Body Damage is Cool
A great post about a 2006 London to Ulan Baataar run in a 2CV.

Good read <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> I've always been fascinated by the hydropneumatic suspension on the DS 19. Wicked cool cars <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />


Fasteddy's advice is occasionally sound...

I only owned it for about 2 years, but my 2CV was in the top 3 all time favorite vehicles. REALLY wish I could have brought it home. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

What a cool adventure!! My parents loved 2CVs, Dianes and Amys. We had many when I was a kid. My Dad taught me to drive in the same color Diane when I was 9. I had a habit of going from 2nd to 1st instead of 3rd <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

Also my uncle and aunt lived in one of those vans, driving it around north Africa!

Very cool death traps <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

There's are real artsy film from the 80's Diva that feature several really neat Citroen cars. My favorite were some white Traction Avant like this:

I haven't ridden in a 2CV, but whenever I see one, I recall Bond, James Bond. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I once drove the SM(??) with the Maserati engine. Very nice car, in fact the only nice French car I ever drove...
