1985 Citroen 2CV Dolly review from UK and Ireland
"Awful. For hardcore masochists only"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Brake linings wore down; an awful job.
Sunroof material split.
Severe corrosion to vent panel and chassis.
General comments?
I bought this hoping to find out what all the fuss was about with the 2CV enthusiasm. Sadly I didn't get on with it at all.
Performance was more akin to that of a milkfloat; laughably slow.
It was not very easy to work on, with comedy handling and poor build quality. The chassis snapped on mine just behind the engine, and off she went to the scrappers.
