Two deux chevaux vapeur


Near the village entrance is this Citroën shop. Parked next to the building are these two 2CVs. That makes 3 red 2CVs in Villigen. Third one seen last year here and here. In addition, I've spotted a grey one but haven't photographed it yet.

Ahhh... I haven't seen a nice Deux Cheavaux in quite some time.

I like the modernized Pluriel also. I always wanted an orange one. :)

I like the 2cv Pichler and this one Wegmüller!!!
I like this car. My grandpa had a few Deudeuches in his life.
Citoën ought to make this car again. It goes no fast does not spent a lot of gasoline and the mechanical is simple. Good car !

Claude: They did make this car again. It's called the Pluriel. :)
Sort of like how VW did the New Beetle.

I missed this when you first posted it and wanted to come back to tell you how very nice it is to just simply look at. Permission to nick please, sir?

I also note that you stirred the old citroen afficionados!

Ce duo est vraiment magnifique. Je les aime vraiment. Peut-être Frau Pichler conduit celui dans le rouge, et Herr Wegmuller, l'autre ? ?

Great to see you in Adelaide tonight. I am sorry to have been absent for so long.

I love this photo of these two darlings. I looked at it very early this morning, but I couldn't get Blogger to let me leave a comment--that or I goofed! Thanks so much for that BBC link to the story about the 60th anniversary.
