Drive one. We value Maserati for the sense of occasion. A 2cv is a laugh a minute. I don’t advocate driving one for 100 miles, but popping to the shops for a 20 minute drive in reasonable weather, it’s hilarious. And to put a smile on your face, priceless. Or 5k depending upon where you buy it.
I’d prefer Uber with a driver that can tell a joke.
Just saying.

My college lecturer had a 2CV - he lived out in the sticks somewhere
He came in one morning all dis heartened after visiting family in Salisbury plain and got hit by a ** tank!
Needless to say it was a write off, this was early 80’s so no insurance on military vehicles as they had Crown Immunity

what a good idea that was - licence to mix alcohol, ammunition, anything that went BANG, with young men absolutely convinced of Immortality and completey free from the risk of prosecution!
**** me, no wonder we try to avoid so many wars.
If a 2cv crashing into a tank is enough to write it off can you imagine what would happen if it got hit by a shell from another tank. I’ve long had suspicions that tanks aren’t made the way they were and this first hand account of a 2cv incident simply confirms that.
