The seller offers for sale this 1988 Citroën 2CV Burton, a beautifully executed cabriolet conversion built in 2002 as Burton No. 219 — one of around 1,400 units produced. Based on a 1988 2CV chassis, it combines classic French engineering with the retro charm of a handmade roadster. In 2022, the car was officially classified as a historic vehicle by the Luxembourg Automobile Club (ACL). Recent maintenance includes new brakes, starter motor, fuel pump and hoses, battery, and a general mechanical check. It is equipped with disc brakes, a 3-point safety belt system, and a retractable soft top.
The polyester bodywork shows no signs of rust and maintains a smooth, glossy finish. The cabin features a vinyl bench seat and the original 1988 rear seat, all in good condition. A period-style retro radio adds a touch of authenticity. The car starts easily, runs cleanly without smoke or noise, and shifts smoothly through its manual gearbox.
This car comes with a valid technical inspection until September 2026 and is ready to drive.
The 2CV Burton represents a creative reinterpretation of the legendary 2CV, combining its light, reliable mechanics with a timeless roadster aesthetic. Lightweight, agile, and charmingly minimalist, it delivers a pure open-top driving experience that captures the spirit of classic motoring in its simplest form.

The description of this car is, to the best of the seller’s knowledge, accurate and not misleading. Route 66 Auctions requests a range of detail about the car from the seller and performs a level of due diligence. However, potential buyers must independently satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of the description.

Please note that it is not uncommon for classic or collectible cars to have received cosmetic repairs in the past, to rectify damage or refresh appearance, and this work may be hard to see even upon visual inspection.

Photographs may not reflect the exact true colour or exact full condition of the vehicle. It is a bidder’s responsibility to assure themselves of the colour and condition of a vehicle, including its interior and the existence of any remedial bodywork or paintwork, before committing to bid or buy.
