A 1959 Citroën 2CV CI Product:Greetings card Front Row L-RA 1959 Citron 2CV CI. This is the last right hand drive car, from a total run of five million. Designed for rural use, the Deux Chevaux was conceived as 'an umbrella on four wheels', capable of carrying two people and 50 kilos of produce or a small barrel. Able to brave almost any road surface, this air cooled car was cheap to run and allowed instant open air motoring. Its simple but imaginative design made the most of resources in post war France.
