Look what you get with the Citroen 2CV. A complete set of fully round wheels, one on each corner, for perfect mobility. A peppy little engine tucked away up front, that not only starts with the turn of a key, but stops in exactly the same manner. Completely transparent windows for superb all-round visibility. A totally automated braking system, simply activated by depressing a pedal with the foot. An automatic sunshine roof, you automatically roll it back when the sun comes out. Central locking system. You can reach all the doors from the drivers seat, and many more features too numerous to mention. In fact everything a driver will ever need to get him reliably and comfortably from A to B. Citroen 2CV 2499.00 (pounds sterling, ~$3700) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The 2CV was designed in the period 1936-1939 and first produced in 1948.
