Citroen 2CV 4x4 Sahara - Driving the Land Rover rival sold with TWO ENGINES. Best offroad car ever?
12,365Citroen 2CV 4x4 Sahara - Driving the Land Rover rival sold with TWO ENGINES. Best offroad car ever? Is this the only car that has been factory built and sold with more than one engine? Modern hybrids aside, we think the rarest 2CV could well be. In this episode Jonny Smith gives a detailed walk around and drive of the humble Citroen thought to to be worth as much as €200,000 on the road. Huge thanks to https://www.mehariclub.com/en/ for giving us access to this stunning car.
Despite having two engines it still only had 4 cylinders and 850cc total capacity, providing less than 30bhp. But that didn't matter when the 'Sahara' could climb walls and mountains, and survive desert terrain.
