Samobor to Host Meeting of Citroen 2CV Lovers Next Week

By 28 July 2019

ZAGREB, July 28, 2019 - The Croatian town of Samobor, just west of Zagreb, will host the 23rd meeting of lovers of the French-made car Citroen 2CV next week.

About 3,000 of these vintage vehicles and some 8,000 people from all over Europe and other continents are expected to attend the meeting from July 30 to August 4. The meeting is organised by the Croatian 2CV Citroen Club, which is based in Samobor.

This is the first time the annual meeting is taking place in Croatia. Over the course of six days, car lovers will have a chance to exchange experiences, participate in an off-road ride and enjoy other events. Owners will also bring 200 2CVs to Zagreb's main square, Croatian 2CV Club president Goran Škrbin told Hina.

This year marks 29 years since the cessation of production of the 2CV, known in Croatia as the Spaček. International meetings of its fans have been organised biannually since 1975.
