And it weighs less than half of the other two (less than a ton), so less power is needed.

I agree though, the C15 is slower than the other two, but less than you’d perhaps think.

I own a Citroën 2CV. It has some of the same qualities: super robust, incredibly off-roady, simple mechanically, but I take my “regular car” (2017) for road trips > 100km…

I’ve done numerous long road trips in the 2CV though, before I got the other car. Some longer than 1000km.

I agree with the TFA, that many overestimate their needs, but older cars are also less luxurious - obviously!

The post is a hot take, slightly tongue-in-cheek, isn’t it? :)
