Anyone remember that advertising?

To earn a point please tell me which car was featured in that ad, what was its list price and roughly when was that ad published!  :)

Not from the eastern block, therefore not a Lada!

Austin metro?

Citroen 2CV - it had a top speed of 71.5mph after 1981?

...because it was indeed an ad for the Citroën 2cv from the 1980's, well done!

LOCKED for gilescooperuk: one element is missing to earn your point: what was the listed price of that 2cv?

I have a version with £2,584 but I will gladly accept the £90 difference :)

One more point for you!
