Sacre Coeur and Another Icon of Paris

Click for fullscreen mode

As I reached the top of a long flight of stairs I caught my first glimpse of the Sacre Coeur and was delighted to see another icon of France right in front of it, a 2CV...

...followed by another.. and then another... and yet another!

My first thoughts were that it was an owner’s club excursion or possibly a race and when I got home I googled the name on the car, 4 Roues sous 1 Parapluie.

It turns out that this company owns a large fleet of 2CVs and they offer a full range of guided tours and events for individuals and companies.

What a great idea! I have always loved 2CVs. Prices start from  10€ per person (for a 15 minute tour). A tour would make a wonderful surprise present for a special occasion. I’ll have to drop a few very large hints next time I’m in Paris (whenever that might be).

Will the 2CV become as a familiar sight in Paris as gondolas are in Venice? I hope so.
