Citroën - 1964 2CV Sahara - The story of a rare french classic.


We had the incredible chance to film the true story of a rare 1964 Citroën 2CV Sahara.

Last year, an unrestored 1961 Sahara was sold at the record price of 172.840 €

This is the only twin engine, all wheel drive serie car ever made. A grand total of 694 were ever produced and they were used in really rough environments (mountains, deserts...), so it's extremely rare to find one that was restored with such passion, using only original pieces, and looks and drives like brand new.
This model was produced in 1964 and was used in the french Pyrénées mountains to check on high altitude dams and hydropower plants. We imagined the story of its original owner in its original environment.
