2CV - Deux Chevaux-Vapeur



2CV
Deux Chevaux-Vapeur
"Two Steam Horses"


This minimalist, sturdy economical car was
manufactured in France between 1948 and 1989.  


Seen in many French films of the 50s and 60s,
I always smile when I see one on the streets of Paris.


bon weekend

la Deuche - 2CV




"Four wheels under an umbrella" is one of the nicknames for this iconic French car.  
Last spring we saluted a trio of 2CVs as they rode the streets of Paris. 


It is difficult to see a 2CV without thinking about all the French movies
and the tree-lines roads of Provence.  


This is dedicated to my dear friend Véronique (French Girl in Seattle) who has written at least two posts with many photos on these cherished vehicles.  She has a dream to take a tour with her son and this may be the very car of her dreams.

Joyeux anniversaire, ma chère Lauren
