@thenthusiast I know , You cant buy'm , goverment regulations , maybe in the near future , when the Us goverment understands the fact that ,,everyday'' cars should do 40 to 80 MPG , these European brands can be bought in sunny California , thanks for watching.
@Kbrusky15 That would be a long cranckshaft !! No , its very simple , one 2cyl engine in front driving the frontwheels and one 2cyl engine in the rear for the rear wheels.
Seen a few of them over here during the old days but I think they were expensive due to import taxes. Best I can recall they were smokers & we have had restriction on exhaust since 1970.
@riitaalin Well , air-cooled engines always produce more exhaust fumes and combined with the ,, lack '' of safety they stopped importing Citroen in the States.
Thank you. Very interesting to see these small cars & small engines. I wonder how reliable they would have been travel in the States with our long distances we travel to work & leisure.
@riitaalin You might be suprised , a simple 2 cylinder aircooled engine without any electronic gimmicks is maybe more reliable than most of our modern car engines , look at BMW with their boxer air-coolded engines , still going strong .
I just saw one of these cars here in Sacramento California... I hardly ever see a Peguot, Renault, or Citreon... very interesting cars..

I do not understand the 2 engine setup so there is one cylinder in the front and one in the back?

That is an amazing collection. He sure has them tightly packed in that showroom. That place is a dream for a Citroen Collector. Great video!

@riitaalin If you cruise at 55mph, and only us the maximum 70 mph for overtaking every now and again they will run all day every day!
