I love to see well maintained classic cars in everyday use. I saw this periwinkle Citroen 2CV in super shape (check out that perfect bumper) sitting in an open garage over the weekend. She's a beauty.

Nice Seattle blue! There are still two of these vintage DCVs that I see around town on a regular basis. I had a 1967 one in France at one time...and it was old then.

The blue on this 2CV is stunning and how lucky to find it... great capture! How fun would it be to ride around in that chic auto

Such a glorious little car. I am getting quite a photographic collection of them. Love the sky blue colour.

Its a great colour and in excellent condition too! I know someone who has a rather battered white 2CV, rode in it a couple of times last summer. One time he pulled up outside and when he applied the handbrake the exhaust fell off!

It is a beauty! I like their distinctive shape too. I saw an older model while in UK last October, still in good shape...you won't believe it, but I did not have either of my cameras with me. Argh.
