OK, so after going L2B this year with Joe I have officially become a huge fan of 2cvs.

So much so that i'm going to sell my Punto in order to buy myself one, now that says a lot as i have wanted a punto since i was 12.

I hope you all welcome me to your club :P

Just the 2cv atmosphere is amazing :D and there's so much variation in the cars, before I went I thought they were all pieces of crap.

But now I realize they're not at all.

2CV FTW!

If you get yourself seen to by a phsychiatrist soon it may not be too late for you... :D

Welcome aboard, they are truly the most mind blowingly versatile vehicles and you will not look back......it is a disease though.

regards,
Shane.

I suggest elctroconvulsive shock therapy to cure this abberation. Fortunately there is a tried and tested 2CV procedure and we have found a 2CV coil is ideal.

First you plug the ignition leads into two old style "swan neck" door handles, these are then held tightly onto your temples using a number of 2 2cv seat elastics, the exact number depends on the circumference of your head, but generally somewhere between 5 and eight seat elastics are required.

Sit with your back against the front of the car and reach behind you and grasp the headlights tightly. We recommend you chew on a genuine Citroen oak wheel wedge you stop you from biting your tongue.

There are several mods who have had all the relevant training to operate the starter motor of the car. Obviously the car won't start because the ignition leads are attached to your temples, safety is important. Part of the training is ensuring the car is out of gear, and they know not to allow the starter motor to spin excessively so it doesn't overheat; clearly we don't want to end up with damaged starter motors. Especially given that the cable oprated lever ones are getting harder to find.

Even if the operation isn't completely succesful; usually the patient at least doesn't purchase something sporting "D*lly" stickers....

Welcome

Dude......lets not start on the D*lly bashing...... :D

Also if you have a significant other .....about the last time you spend any decent time will be before you get the 2cv, after that you probably won't see them again and when she talks to you, you start to fade out and drift off to a 2cv related haze. :lol: :lol: :lol:

you have been warned...!!!!!
