The cult favorite of many (I’m one), the Citroen 2CV was a true “people’s car,” designed to bring mobility to rural families. Designed before World War II, and with its heyday after, millions were sold. Legend has it you could fix any problem with a screwdriver, a wrench and 10 francs.
Spotted this spiffed-up sample while touring in France’s Luberon region…and I wasn’t the only one who watched longingly as it circled the Place de la Colonne, turned a corner and vanished from sight.
A visit to the Desert View Watchtower on the eastern portion of the Grand Canyon’s South Rim. Constructed in the 1930s, it offers magnificent canyon views and a tie to the Native American history of the Canyon.
I was visiting a friend, and this was the view from their house. I could understand why they built their house facing this direction. I was taken by the beauty!

Wanted a used 2CV when I lived in Avignon, but another buyer got to it first. One of my favorites. Thanks for posting.
And virtually indestructible too. You had to drive the “deux chevaux” pretty hard to achieve a decent speed, but it achieved it well ! Its popularity peaked in the 60’s when it was it was sold at half the price of a VW Beetle. Assembled in 12 countries across the world to meet demand. It once had a 5 year waiting list for new cars and used models were more expensive than new !
