Retro Bike Transporter of Choice...

[cchris2lou]

Certainly not the ultimate. Why oh why do I want one of these?

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CITROEN-2CV-VAN-6 ... 7C294%3A50

number plate is from le mans , maybe it is a former race car .

seriously there are 1000s of those rusting away in french farmer fields .

I thought that Le Mans was department 72 not 76??

(how **** sad am I to know that??)

yes it is 72 , always get the 2 mixed up .

BTW , nice pic of the alfa .

my mum partner has got two of them .

second one has a different back though , not square .

I have a 17 year old Hilux long bed(Similar to the MBUK "Crud Truck" -as seen in DIRT video)

It comfortably takes 7 bikes (Either in their boxes or assembled with panels inbetween to protect. Safety first kids. ) and the roll bars act as a mobile bike rack which you can lock your ride to if needed...

Can also get tent, chairs, stove, beer and the mrs in there too.
Advantages are: mud/no roads isn't an issue
Disadvantages: 20mpg on a good day!

Does that count?

That DS was on ebay before, super cool. Think HB took a shine to it.

A mint metalic brown SM on the other hand........

How about a mint SM in Bleu d'Orient instead?

Nah, too hard to keep clean and not 70's enough. Dad had a green one in about 81 when no-one wanted them and you could buy them for buttons. It was scrapped when the engine failed :roll:

Yep, sad. Happened to a lot of them.

He should have known better though...
