I have a friend that has just left France to drive to Mongolia in a Renault 4L (Lovingly pronounce "Catrelle" in French) - loosely a "sister car" to the 2CV.
We spent a few weeks driving around the French and Spanish Pyrennees in it. I'm not at all a car person, but fell in love with. Its quirks and personality make it a pleasure to drive. The time you spend broken down is balanced with the people you meet who all have a story about this car.
Buzzing around the mountain trails and getting jealous looks from ferrari drivers are all part of the perks.
There's a huge passion behind these cars - they even hold annual rallies for pushing these cars way beyond their intended limits.
