Citroen 2CV 4×4 Sahara
This Citroën 2CV or 'Ugly Duck' has two engines and four-wheel drive.

The rear engine, located in the trunk, is mounted backwards and the gearboxes are connected by rods. One of the engines can be switched off, for example to save fuel.

This 'Sahara' model, introduced in 1958, is intended for expeditions in the French colonies, where four-wheel drive is necessary. Since Citroën does not have an engine powerful enough for four-wheel drive, two coupled engines are chosen. Despite the displacement of only 425 cc per engine, off-road performance is decent.

Production is limited to 694 units, as the car is not intended for general use. Outside the colonies, the Sahara is widely used in Spain and in the Swiss postal services; Reportedly, two Sahara ducks were even used by Rijkswaterstaat. As far as we know, there are about 25-50 copies left worldwide.

The model presented here was delivered in the color Old English White and has a red striped interior. The engine runs well, as does the shifting mechanism. The car has a black vinyl roof. This very nice Sahara CV2 has Swedish papers. Very rare and difficult to find.

This vehicle has Danish registration.
