De Citroën Ami 8, an evolved type of 2CV, is one of the most recognizable cars of all time, along with that 2CV, the pike, the Beetle and R4.

Des malles bombées, trunk enlargers. And a silly bombée, that's just one. Those were things that a lot of French people thought they could do to earn a living. And for what kind of cars was increasing the trunk space the most important? For 2CVs of course. Because in a test from the early duck years it became Read more
