Complete your collection and build history, piece by piece and display this amazing model!

Citroen 2CV has become an icon of the French automotive industry. It was produced and improved continuously in the years 1949-1990. The car was designed before the war. Its creation is connected with the need to produce a simple and cheap car for the masses, in line with the slogan of the company director Pierre Boulanger, "quatre roues sous un parapluie" (four wheels under an umbrella). The car was maximally simplified, economical and allowed for comfortable transport of 4 people with luggage. Baptized as the ugliest car in the world at the Paris Salon in 1948, it became an object of desire, contrary to the critics' opinions. During 41 years of production, nearly 4 million units were produced in factories around the world. Today, this car has cult status and is a treat for collectors. In 1980, the premiere of a special version of the cult car Citroen 2CV took place! The Limited Charleston was produced with only 8,000 units! The car was distinguished by its attractive, characteristic two-colour body and interior trim.
