Gateway Classic Cars of Scottsdale is pleased to present for sale on consignment, this cool little 1967 Citroen 2CV that comes with quite a story! A quick internet search done by yours truly revealed a movie promo photo of Heather Graham, who played Felicity Shagwell in the 1999 comedy, Austin Powers The Spy Who Shagged Me, standing in front of the back end of an Orange Citroen 2CV. According to the owner, this was that car! A little digging revealed it was just a promo photo and the car most likely did not make it into the movie but everybody loves a good car story, right? This orange piece of eye candy is powered by a small but mighty 375cc H2 Air Cooled gas engine producing a mind boggling 9hp that is mated to a 4 speed manual transmission, both believed to be untouched in terms of a rebuild. You really can't help but grin and possibly giggle when you get behind the wheel. The shifter location alone makes you feel like you're in something other than a car. This car measures a wheelbase of 94.5 inches, 152 inch overall length, 58.3 inches of width and 63 inches high and weighs in at a feathery 1323lbs! The seats legitimately look like lawn furniture but are surprisingly comfortable and forgiving. This car features an AM Radio and cloth seats. The orange body is all there but shows wear after 55 years of coming off the production line. The split driver and passenger windows flip up, rather than roll down to add to the uniqueness of the car. There is a lot to take in on this car and the list of differences from more traditional vehicles continue to grow the more you look at it. This one is surely a conversation piece and a rarity that is sure to blow people's minds when you roll in to your local car show. Inquire with our sales department on how to welcome this neat little piece of cinematic history into your collection today!
