You thought the Citroen 2CV was old and out? No, it's the basic platform for the Burton. That's a light sportscar which is build by the Burton Car Company. They build also a funny 2CV Pick-up. The Burton and pick-up
are intended to build it yourself, but if you pay a lil' bit more, they build a Burton for you.

Do you suppose this car is great or a bit too nostalgic and old?

Citroen 2CV sportscar

Never have I seen those two words together before!

I think there's a small market for them but not enough for it to be profitable

They produce 120 Burtons a year.

710 liter luggage space? what kinda sportscar is that?

I hope they beafed up the chassis because the 2CV wasn't exactly known for its structural rigity

6000 GBP per year......just for the insurance....way too costly////

not 6000, its 60.00 euros a year

not 6000, its 60.00 euros a year Yup, we use the "," instead of the "." and the "." instead of the ","

thus €60,00 = €60.00

Oh man! I NEED one! It's beyond want. I would eat a human being for a chance to own either the sports car or the truck.

Oh god, so cool.

I would be afraid to own one in the States. The garbage men might pick it up and crush it thinking it was cast off rubbish.

That said, I love micro-cars, the more obscure the better.
