Rosie and I moved house in her 2cv and everything went in, the sofa, the wardrobes, the cooker, the lot!
About six months after that I was stopped by a traffic policeman as I came out of a long bend at a terrific angle and apparently exceeding the speed limit, thankfully he let me off.
The mention earlier of an annual event where Citroen offered a cash prize could well have been the Guild of Motoring Writers Test Day, As a motoring journo for many years, we always used to attend and one year myself and fellow journalist Tom Murphy tried our hardest to roll a 2cv around Donington and even flat out into Redgate, turning in hard with no braking, it just held the line and Tom and I were falling about laughing, as we sailed out of the corner at an unbelievable roll angle...nearly as much fun as a Seven!
