Love any car that just works. Love how simple these cars are, wow no computers needed, and look it runs, runs well. Great engineering, made simple.

I've got one here in England that I drove through all of last winter, reliable as hell and so capable in the snow, it just wouldn't let go of the road. Even drove it with the roof off in that weather, the heater is great so it was fine up front, but my rear passengers lost the feeling in their ears. I told them that was the "dual zone climate control" in action.

Congratulations with your 2 CV👍.. it's Avery good car for this weather (snow), because it's a "light" car and the tyres are small 👍 and .. Bonne route en 2 CV 😉

Because that car is unbelievably comfy, reliable and also easy to take care of. It is from a time, where carbuilders actually cared even for those people, which had almost no money in the pocket to get them moving. Nowadays cars arent nearly as solid as this one

Hi Roger, Yours is identified as a 'linked comment.' Whatever that means in the greater scheme of things, at the moment the ability to reply directly to your comment is not available, so I must reply here in the main thread. The two little stickers you see on the windscreen identify the vehicle as registered for our Citroën Rendezvous held every year on Father's Day weekend in Saratoga Springs, New York. The one on the right, which looks like a 2CV, is from 2008. The other is actually a Traction Avant for the event year 2009. Each year one Citroën model is recognized--usually for a milestone event. The 2CV was 60 years old in 2008, for example. Yes, I have seen the air duct fans. I don't think anyone in the US sells them, but I've seen them in the 2CV Friends catalog.

if you pressure wash the undercarriage each spring you should be good to go . I had one of these in Lyon France during my younger years and it was a daily driver 365 days a years even trips to the ski resort did not scare us at a time

Check out the 2CV Sahara version. Very rare believed to remain less than 30 still on the road today.

That was a light snow?!?! The best car I ever had in snow (and that is including a 4x4) was a 2cv. It just went on regardless. Would give me left leg for another.

The 2cv heat good if the engine works hard ennough (no real heating in descent), but in winter it need to reduce the air intake with the special mask...

"We'll take a front row today" Because half the water-cooled cars couldn't make it. Quick hint, retro-fit flat aero wiper blades. I know people think they're just a gimmick but I've noticed an amazing difference on my Citroën Xsara Picasso, which also has a flat pane of glass for the windsheild. No more games of hide & streak for me. You can find them on Amazon.co.uk for around $12.50, perhaps up to $20 including postage and packing to USA, for the pair.

Is this safe to drive on a highway? I was seriously considering buying one for a time, but there are so many steep slopes and curves on my commute in addition to the highway that I just wasn't sure.

Thanks for the ride. The 2CV seems to drive quite well in the snow. Do you have snow tires, or chains on them?

They were available in the 1980s(thru independent importers after Citroen exited America) before DOT made Grey Market cars illegal.

Hi I saw two little pictures on the right hand (passenger) windscreen, the one on the left looks like my AC 2litre saloon, what is it? I also had a 2CV but got rid of it for a Range Rover, an expensive mistake. Have you seen the little in-line fans you cut into the top air hose to boost screen heating?

Hi, first of all, I envy you, a 2CV and a Godess... :) One day I hope I´l have those as well in my garage. I have to ask, what camera did u use, and how was it attached to the car? I like the frame movement of the setup (not shaky at all, very slow and smooth, I´d like to replicate that). I bet It´s quite a hefty camera, of a bulky camera mount. Merci beaucoup ;) D.K.

I have to ask if salt is used on your roads.? I would love to use my 2cv in the winter in upper New York State,but that would be the end of a wonderful car. Even with my galvinized frame ,the salt would win !! Good luck with you beauty .

@hakim91 While living in Tacoma WA I had followed a 2cv into basement parking in Seattle, had obviously just been imported from Germany, five colours of primer, more duck-tape than canvas in the roof and one legal tyre. I jumped out of my brand new Pontiac and offered a trade right there and then, pink slip in one hand, keys in the other. He wouldn't go for it.

The 2 cv is - to me - a wonderful car (but i am not objective as i'm french !).I have watched this doc. with pleasure but ask to me : what is the final result ? What a critic about this car in winter conditions ? Snowing road, distances, weight to charge a.s.o.
@mrmarco53
@mrmarco53 8 лет назад
With snow tires, the 2CV is an excellent vehicle for driving in snow.

Thanks for the testimony ! I was sure of it ! I dream about that car ! I realy hope to have the opportunity to buy one ... one day ! I am sixty y.o. and as well i saw, as a young boy, a lot of 2CV on my street and by town. it's a real nostalgic object to me !

@Rutherford94

great video, but what about the heating? Is it warm enough in the winter?
@mrmarco53
@mrmarco53 7 лет назад
Of course it depends on how cold it is. The engine generates some heat, and that can be felt near the ducts, but not too far into the rest of the car. If your heater ducts are in good condition, and you block off places where heat can escape, it isn't too bad. One trick is to put a piece of cardboard in the grill ahead of the engine fan. Be very careful not to overheat the engine. I wouldn't use this above 20F degrees. The engine fan is also the heater blower, so blocking the air flow to the engine will reduce the fan's ability to move the air into the cabin. The air that does get through will be warmer though. Auxiliary electric fans are made that mount inside the ducts. I've not tried them though.
@Rutherford94

well i asked that cause my 2cv 6 club 1989 has no heating. In 2009 we had to put in a catalysator cause it's a law in germany to have one if we are living in big cities like Munich or Berlin. So they took out the heating because the smell was so bad. Kind regards.

Underlying jealousy. It's a classic car that can go off road, drive through snow, reliable and the flat twin uses very little in the way of fuel. A GTR might go fast, but a 2CV goes anywhere.

Come on, less idleing, less choke, shift up earlier. The 2 CV is not a russian tank. Please try to find speed #4 (to neutral, then right, and push). The rest is very ok, smooth handleing will make it last for long.
@fernandovalladares6701
@fernandovalladares6701 6 лет назад
Capable not a Russian tank, but it is extremely resistant, mine is a 3cv Argentine model equivalent to 2cv6, is 43 years old and still working, the engine is a beauty, I enjoy it whenever I can, it is relaxing to handle it.
