Report of the brilliant Raid Laponie
from Mark Lewis
2cv of the Week
(Advertisement)
For sale Citroen 2cv6 very special two tone blue & white, must be unique. This car is one of the last 2cv’s ever built, registered in August 1990 on a H plate (very few of these cars around). The colour is not a standard colour scheme. I got the inspiration from seeing a very nice two tone VW camper Van split screen on my travels. The car has been through an extensive restoration and wants for nothing, professionally restored by a 2cv specialist, a superb solid rust free car. The car has low miles 57,300 and original. The floors have been totally replaced, including a galvanised chassis. Superb condition inside and out, the finish on the Citroen is stunning. The restoration cost me thousands of pounds, with invoices to prove. I also have some service history. The car was originally left in a garage for a number of years and was off the road before I purchased it. Never been taken out in the wet, always garaged and kept dry. White wall rims were purchased and I think you will agree just makes the car that little bit special. The interior again has been restored to a very high standard and again as new, really sets the car off. The interior (seat covers & door cards) has been matched to the exterior. The engine has been rebuilt and nicely detailed. I recently showed the car and it was singled out for one of the best cars in the show. All tyres & rims are in excellent condition again part of the restoration. 5 former keepers. No rust/bubbling or rot around the rear tail lights nor in the corners of the doors, the rear seat belts connection point as new, the same goes for the lower pillars or front vent flap, all common areas of rust and rot. The bonnet hinge has been replaced and a new one fitted and re-sprayed. The boot area is again in stunning condition, no bubbling or rot of covered up with filler, which is a common problem. Car has been fully under sealed. I could go on. You will really be hard pushed to find a better example. The engine & gearbox is again in superb condition, no crunching or clunking noises, extremely economical motoring, easily 40mpg, insurance fully comp costs me a little over £130 per year. Ready for the summer shows. The car can be seen in Lancashire. The car comes complete with its original wheel brace and jack, plus spare wheel and wooden wedge. Citroen 2cv’s have increased in price greatly in the last 2 years, cars in this condition regularly sell for between £6000-7500. The car can be viewed anytime during the weekend or after 6pm during week days. Viewings and questions, welcome. Lots of extra pics available upon request. Reason for selling is, I am looking for another project, simple as that. Price: £6400

Graham Majin's 2CV sold to Pennsylvanian
8th October 2010
Hi Dick, The car has now sold (to someone in Pennsylvania USA!). Many thanks for all your help. I made a video of the last European journey of our 2CV. I drove her from kent to Hampshire where she’ll be put into a container and shipped across the Atlantic. Thought it might be of interest to your website. Regards Graham.
Graham Wilson has been an enthusiast of the Citroen 2CV for over twenty five years after restoring a 2CV van found being used as a log shed in a garden!
The hobby continued to become more and more absorbing until fifteen years ago Graham set up The 2CV Workshop. Many services are now offered ranging from servicing and general repairs, to chassis fitment, full structural restoration, and paint work. Full rebuilds are undertaken to the customer's specific requirements,. All such cars are fully wax-injected and serviced with twelve months' MOT. Usually there is a range of quality 2CVs for sale. The 2CV Workshop is dedicated to keeping 2CVs on the road.
To restore a 2CV involves skill and hard work. PTS Developments photograph the stages of their renovations and present the client with a CD showing the challenges
a) encountered and
b) resolved.
NES 2cv Speed Shop has full workshop facilities and cater for all a-series from ripples to kits cars, both standard and modified, basic service to full restoration, looking for a classic like the 2cv? then let geoff source the car that you want.
Citroen-2CV and 2CVTV were launched in 1997 to celebrate the history and use of the 2CV and all A Series Citroëns. It reports news, details coming events, links to specialists and suppliers, features a discussion forum, offers readers' cars for sale and covers a wide range of other topics. We are keen to provide a useful 'oasis' for all 2CV stuff with an accent on 'lifestyle' (the use of 2CVs) ranging from trips abroad and insurance matters. We hope that it represents a good first stop en route to finding the supplier, event, part, car that is needed to make the 2CVer's life complete.
