The seller offers for sale this 1958 Citroën 2CV Fourgonnette, an early example of Citroën’s legendary light commercial vehicle. Built with a utilitarian body and powered by a 425 cc 2-cylinder petrol engine paired with a manual gearbox, this Fourgonnette reflects the original philosophy of affordable, functional transport. According to the seller, the car starts without difficulty, produces no blue or white smoke when warm, and the engine runs without unusual noises. The gearbox is reported to shift smoothly and without abnormal sounds. The vehicle is stated to have no accident history, no rust issues, and no technical upgrades. It retains its original mechanical layout and is reported to be roadworthy with a valid inspection. The paintwork, body, and interior are described by the seller as being well preserved, with no remarks required.
The Citroën 2CV Fourgonnette was introduced to meet the needs of tradesmen, farmers, and small businesses, offering simple mechanics, low running costs, and remarkable load-carrying ability for its size. Sharing its engineering with the passenger 2CV, the Fourgonnette became a familiar sight across rural and urban France. Today, it is appreciated as a charming and practical classic, valued for its honest design, light weight, and unmistakable French character. Its historical role and distinctive appearance make it a popular choice among collectors and enthusiasts of utilitarian classics.
