Citroen 2CV: France's iconic car

One of France's most iconic cars, the Citroen 2CV, is celebrating its 60th birthday this October. The BBC's Emma Jane Kirby in Paris has been looking at how this vehicle revolutionised the French motor industry.

Some may dismiss it as nothing more than an old tin can. The BBC Top Gear programme's Jeremy Clarkson wrote it off as a "weedy, useless little engine".

But enthusiasts like Xavier Audran who owns a dozen of them, worships the 2CV "not just as a car, but as a way of life".
