After a trip to France, I fell in love with the Citroen 2CV. Do you know it? Is this car road legal in the US?

It is a lovely collection car, one of the smartest and most practical heavy duty automobile. Great suspensions, agile, light and very easy to maintain. Very economical too.
Unfortunately it is illegal to drive it on US open roads. I bet there's a 2CV fan club somewhere in US. I will get back to you if I find any interesting contact.
Good luck.

it has an engine that consists of only 2 cylinders,and it was like a work donkey in france,it is tough,it was made since the late forties(i think) and was discontinued in the early ninties in france but was still made in a factory in portugal until it was finally discontinued,don't know about the US

no, not without major retro fitting, headlights, exhaust system and emission control systems. Besides you can not easily get repair parts or anyone to work on a piece of crap like the citroen

that car is the lousiest pile of rubbish I have ever driven. Not only is it underpowered but the wings are made of steel that is so thin that you can almost see through it. The brakes work on a single disc on the front Axel. I have one recommendation, DONT!!!!

its not road legal in the US no.. the car's safety standards don't match up to the US crash requirements.. it ain't safe enough..

And who would you have locally to work on it? The car is an ancient
underpowered death trap.

yes,as long as it's 1968 or earlier,do you know the top speed is about 50mph? sounds pretty scary to me
