Hoexbroe Posted June 23, 2013 (edited) Hi all, I´ve just finished my collection of Citroën 2CVs, and these are all the possible colour-combinations when using standard Lego components; There are 9 possible pure-colour variants. The lime and red car are only possible now in 2013, when certain key-pieces has finally been made available. But we can make even more! -There exist some additional designs and paintschemes from Citroën; -Namely the dark red/black Charleston, the yellow/black Charleston and the red/white Dolly! Here´s a couple of more photos of this -currently- 12-car collection; Ciao! Edited June 23, 2013 by Hoexbroe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

michaelozzie Posted June 23, 2013 I really love these and its great you did all the colour versions. I had one of these drive past me yesterday but it had multi-coloured body panels. There was a yellow bonet, green doors, blue roof etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stephan Posted June 23, 2013 Do you also have instructions for your other Citroëns? That would be more than awesome!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rriggs Posted June 23, 2013 Loving the vigs! Don't ever remember my dad heisting from a tree but it was a long time ago! The DS and the van are great too! How about a CX? His next car was a CX estate. Lots of curves to do on one of them too... Cheers Rog Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mariano Posted June 24, 2013 I love it. Very well done design. Its fantastic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zed_43 Posted June 24, 2013 Love your 2cv and your type H van (we commonly call it "tube" in fance). By the way, are you french for building so many citroens? (I don't see our country on your profile as iI am on a smartphone). My prefered one is the dark red and black 2cv. I this row I would have seen a citroen traction to complete the serie ^^. Great job!

Darth Dino Posted June 24, 2013 Hi most impressive how you rebuild the classic curved and round style of the old Citroens with BRICkS! I like the most the red and white 2CV which is still popular here in Germany and can be seen regulary on the streets. Those versions often have a rolling roof. Germans nickname for the 2CV is "the duck" :) Dino Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoexbroe Posted June 24, 2013 First off; Thanks to all! Do you also have instructions for your other Citroëns? That would be more than awesome!! Well, The DS has a complete set of instructions published here; http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=484390 Loving the vigs!

Cheers Rog So your dad was not James Bond¿? ;-) I´m sorry, but a CX is not en the plans. Love your 2cv and your type H van (we commonly call it "tube" in fance). By the way, are you french for building so many citroens? (I don't see our country on your profile as iI am on a smartphone). My prefered one is the dark red and black 2cv. I this row I would have seen a citroen traction to complete the serie ^^. Great job! I am danish, but living in Spain. I dont have any special inclination for Citroën, it has just so happened that I´ve been able to build some of these very characteristic models. It´s always nice when complex curves can be achieved with Lego. I´ve never even owned a Citroën, but there sure were plenty of them in Denmark! Especially the 2CV is an engineering masterpiece, given the specification and cost of the finished product. (Also compared to when this car was actually designed) I know that tecnologically and design-wise the DS was eons ahead of everybody else when it came out, but still, I think it was the 2CV that had ALL the charm...

timmyc1983 Posted June 24, 2013 Amazing design and they look sooooo good altogether like that! Wonderful job! Happy building Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redhead1982 Posted June 24, 2013 The 2CV's design is great! My favourite combination is dark red and black. Somehow, it looks more realistic than the other bright colours. Well done! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kivi Posted June 25, 2013 This is an amazing collection of 2CVs. Now put the minifigs around and you'll have a 2CV fan meeting. Some colours are more recognizable than other but then I think that 2CV is a type of car that looks good in just any colour. The combinations are also fantastic, especially the black/dark one. I remember there were quite some around in this colour combination in my neighbourhood when I was a child. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
