Watch one go around a corner and you'll see.

The 2CV is incredibly light already so with a fibreglass body should be fun.
Life begins at 80 and ends shortly after in a temporary court on the side of the road.

Wonder if this one will still travel at 30 through a field with 4 adults, a pocket of potatoes and a pig (or whatever the original requirement of the version of this particular postwar European peasant car was!!!)
