I've noticed that the esteemed PetrolTed has been making an increasing number of references to the 2CV and what a wonderful car he thinks it is. "Replace your MGF with a 2CV." Well, ok, a 2CV has got more street cred and probably better performance than the venerable 2CV, but come on Ted. It can't be a good car. It only does 60mph, has 2 cylinders, and does more than 20 mpg. I think he's losing it myself. James

I heard he had lost it. Turned in a bit quick and the 2CV's rear end broke away at alarming speed......... (No offence Ted, Please don't delete me)

I've never driven a 2CV. For the record, I don't have a beard, don't wear sandals and have never harboured a desired to be a school teacher. 2CVs are offensive and the only ones I approve of are those that spontaneously combust

So why do you keep on banging on about how great they are then? Nothing to be ashamed of.
