Barn Find 1 owner Citroen 2CV survivor car discovered. There's always a lovely backstory when Jonny Smith discovers a car that has been in the family since new, and that's precisely what happened with this Norfolk-based 2CV6 Special. Bought new in 1985 it has served as work car, family car and teenage L-plate learner vehicle. Question is, will Jonny and Darren Arthur (from https://the2cvshop.co.uk/ ) manage to fire the 2-cylinder people's car into life?
