1989 Citroen 2CV Charleston

Introduced in 1948, the Citroën 2CV became a fixture of French life thanks to its simple construction, long-travel suspension, and ability to cope with rough roads. A 602 cc 2CV arrived in 1970, bringing more performance while preserving the lightness, simplicity, and character that carried the 2CV through the end of production in 1990. ‌ Finished in this characteristic Burgundy and Black two-tone color scheme, this Citroën 2CV Charleston features distinctive graphics, chrome headlamp surrounds, upgraded trim, and is powered by the later 602 cc air-cooled flat-twin in its final 29 PS specification, a meaningful increase over the earliest 2CVs and enough to give the lightweight Citroën livelier performance. ‌ First registered in March 1989, the car was purchased new in Brittany, France, by the consignor’s great-aunt and remained within the family before passing to the consignor in 2019. Restored in 2024, the car presents attractively and displayed 79,681 km at the time of cataloguing. It is accompanied by an extensive file containing its original sales invoice, Citroën books and maps, period advertising material, and numerous service records. ‌ With its late-production specification, family provenance, recent restoration, and extensive documentation, this 2CV Charleston offers an appealing example of one of the final and most recognizable versions of Citroën’s much-loved 2CV. car
