1990 Citroen 2CV Special review from UK and Ireland
"BMW basher"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Points/plugs failed when first acquired - due to dealers misunderstanding of car.
Hood ripped when opening,
Boodlid would not lock - replacement lid and lock needed.
General comments?
A very comfortable, eye-catching car.
Very surprising acceleration in 1st gear - just watch the faces of the BMW drivers as you sail past on the motorway doing 75!!
People laugh with you when driving, NOT at you! A cheap and cheerful posers car in the summer with the full-length roof rolled back. Only downside is that wind kills the performance really badly and they do need a lot of looking after to look their best.
