It's a deux chevaux, literally "two horse" as in horsepower. (Pronounced "doe shah vo")

Classic and popular European cars made by Citroen. Collectors love them. Try a Google search and you'll see lots of photos and Information.

For Your Eyes Only... James Bond drove one!

But he drove the modified 4hp version.

Love 'em!

They seldom start, but when they do they bounce like a buggy when you board them.

Viva le France!

A 2-cylinder that gives fuel mileage equal that of one of today's 4 cylinder cars with ten times the horsepower.

In Marin county California, they are worth a fortune. Priceless image projection when arriving at the marijuana dispensary.

Judging by the different colored fender, headlight style, turn signals and license plate position it is a 1963-1968 Citroen 2CV Charleston.

Like most everything French, it's a POS!! Couldn't get out of it's own way.
