    DOTS-O-Rama Sunday: Citroen 2CV

    We might as well keep crisscrossing Canada, so we're doubling back to Ontario to take a look at this Citroën 2CV photographed by the aptly-named Citroen_SM. Jump away to read Citroen_SM's description.

    Citroen 2CV Down On The Toronto Street




    Maybe you could use this Citroën DS from Toronto for your DOTS. My girlfriend had just graduated from university, and somehow I got put in charge of taking pictures. Although her family is now wondering why their camera has pictures of her graduating interrupted by pictures of a weird French contraption, but I couldn't help myself. This was by far the most exciting part of the whole ceremony. It rained later that day, and I was wondering to myself how well that canvas roof held up against the weather.

    I can't say for sure that this is a North American version, but according to the picture at the Citroën club it seems right given the hub caps, grille and bumper. And since they were virtually unchanged the whole time they were imported, it's most likely from the 60s, unless it's an import, at which point it could be of almost any vintage from anywhere in the world. Enjoy!
