The classic car is affectionately known as the “Duck” in Germany or the “Döschwo” in Switzerland. By deliberately slowing down from time to time you can experience enjoyment and relaxation away from the main roads.
Our Sophie has disc brakes at the front and a 27 PS engine, so you can even keep up with the flow of modern traffic.
You’re sure to attract attention and, these days, you won’t even be underdressed when rolling up at the opera in a 2CV.
Perfect for
Drive to the beach, picnic, quick drive with friends or honeymoon in France.
Special Features
The roof can be opend to your liking, the more than gentle sprung suspension warrants for the best ever driving comfort - rivalled only by its big sister, the Citroen DS "Madelaine" - and there is even plenty of luggage space.
History
3,868,631 four-door saloons and 1,246,335 delivery vans were built between 1949 and 1990.
In 1934, Citroën director Pierre-Jules Boulanger awarded the contract to develop a minimalist small car. It is said that the designer André Lefèbvre was given the following brief:
“Design a car that provides enough space for two farmers wearing boots and fifty kilograms of potatoes or a small cask of wine that can travel at a speed of at least 60 km/h but that only needs 3 litres of petrol to travel 100 km. Furthermore, it should be able to travel on very bumpy roads and be so easy to handle that even a woman with no driving experience can handle it. It should have a good suspension and be able to carry a basket of eggs over a ploughed field without breaking one of them. Finally, the new car has to be much cheaper than our ‘Traction Avant’. It doesn’t matter what it looks like.”
The 2CV was the basis for the Citroën models Dyane, Ami and Méhari

Simply great.
The trip to Toggenburg was a complete success and "Sophie" made a photogenic appearance in front of the Fischingen monastery. We coped well with the unexpected thunderstorm with hail, but the car is only partially waterproof - it's amazing where it can drip in. Thanks to the convertible roof, however, everything dries in a flash in the sunshine and the good mood returns. As usual, the introduction and handling of Rent a Classic was impeccable.
After some initial difficulties - I didn't have the door lock to hand and had locked the key in - I was helped immediately and the journey could be started after a short delay.
We were able to enjoy a sunny and beautiful day with "Sophie". The hire worked without any problems. We can warmly recommend Rent a Classic. Thank you very much.
