The seller offers for sale this 1986 Citroën 2CV, powered by a 0.6-litre two-cylinder engine, paired with a 4-speed manual transmission. This example is the desirable Dolly special edition, finished in its distinctive two-tone red and white colour scheme that perfectly suits the car’s cheerful, characterful nature. With its full-length roll-back roof, it offers the open-air charm that has made the 2CV such an enduring favourite among enthusiasts.
Few cars are as instantly recognisable or as universally loved as the Citroën 2CV. Compact, lightweight and endearingly simple, it delivers a driving experience unlike anything else, one defined by its soft ride, minimalist controls and irrepressible sense of fun. The Dolly editions, with their playful two-tone paint schemes, are among the most collectable of the later 2CVs and continue to attract a devoted following.
The 2CV was first introduced by Citroën in 1948 as a car for the French countryside, designed to be affordable, robust and endlessly practical. Over a production run spanning more than four decades, it became a cultural icon and a symbol of clever, unpretentious engineering. The Dolly special editions arrived in the 1980s towards the end of the model’s life, adding a splash of colour and individuality that has helped make them especially sought after today.
Powered by its famous air-cooled flat-twin engine and driven through a four-speed manual gearbox, the 2CV rewards its driver with a wonderfully involving, back-to-basics experience. Light, nimble and full of character, this Dolly is a delightful classic that is as enjoyable to own as it is to look at, and an ideal choice for anyone seeking an accessible and genuinely charming piece of motoring history.
