 Re: A-series around the world.
I have a friend a Chile and she's told me there are a few still around there. She lives in Santiago and there was a factory producing 2cv's in the city for a time. I think it was the strange booted version "Citronetta". Ah well, I may get a chance to go out there sometime in the future and will let you all know of the situation when that happens. Just don't hold your breath

 Re: A-series around the world.
which one is the IES? and what does that stand for?
remind me, where else were 2cvs built, and what makes them different? Anybody with an APUA-HELP book handy fancy sending some emails? lets get some worldwide members here and see how the 2cv scene differs around the world...

This one's the 4x4, but the normal 4x2s look identical.

 Re: A-series around the world.
If anyone has a FAF or possibly a pony in a repairable condition i'd be interested (chassis condition no problem)
Cos they are so bloody ugly , i can't think of a nicer Pick up then 4x4 it for fun and bob's your uncle One really cool car and just to go one further I could probably design a new chassis to sit it on that won't rust out and get it finished Before Adrian gets his mehari done!!

 Re: A-series around the world.
I've only got a pic of a Pony at work, surveying on Corfu a few years back with my friend Stefan.  He says it was the dogs bollocks on those rough old tracks! Bx
