The Story of the Citroën 2CV 6 Dolly
The Citroën 2CV 6 Dolly was born in 1985 as a special series intended to revitalize the sales of the venerable Deudeuche. This version stands out with its bold two-tone bodywork, breaking away from the usual sobriety of the 2CV. The name "Dolly" evokes the freshness and modernity Citroën sought to infuse into its iconic model.
Technically, the 2CV 6 Dolly retains the 602 cm³ two-cylinder engine developing 29 horsepower, paired with the front-wheel drive characteristic of the 2CV. Its interlinked torsion bar suspension ensures a unique riding comfort, although performance remains modest with a top speed of 115 km/h.
This special series meets with immediate success among an urban clientele enchanted by its quirky and colorful look. It helps extend the commercial life of the 2CV until 1990, demonstrating that originality can still captivate after more than forty years in the market.
Citroën in the 1980s
In the mid-1980s, Citroën underwent a period of stylistic renewal under the influence of Bertone. The brand with the chevrons aimed to modernize its image while preserving the legacy of its iconic models like the 2CV. The Dolly fits into this rebranding strategy through its color and special finishes.
This period also marks the peak of the collaboration with Peugeot within the PSA group, established in 1976. This enables Citroën to focus on technical and stylistic innovation while benefiting from industrial synergies. The brand is already preparing for the arrival of the AX, which will definitively replace the 2CV in the hearts of French motorists, while developing Citroën miniature cars that perpetuate its legend.
A Small Screen Star
The 2CV 6 Dolly owes part of its fame to its numerous television and cinematic appearances in the 1980s. Its distinctive two-tone livery makes it a preferred choice for directors looking to symbolize the French spirit and joie de vivre.
One of the most notable anecdotes concerns the filming of a commercial where a blue and white Dolly had to cross a field of sunflowers. The unsuspected off-road capabilities of the 2CV allowed for spectacular shots, with the car navigating smoothly over the rough terrain thanks to its revolutionary suspension and generous ground clearance.
This exceptional versatility also made the Dolly a popular vehicle among urban youth in the 1980s, who appreciated its ability to access all terrains, from city centers to country lanes. Some owners would not hesitate to personalize their vehicles with stickers and colorful accessories, making each Dolly a unique specimen.
The 2CV 6 Dolly became a symbol of freedom for a whole generation, embodying a relaxed and authentically French way of life that continues to fascinate collectors worldwide.

Frequently Asked Questions
How to understand the scales of miniatures?
Scale indicates the reduction ratio between the real car and the miniature. For example, at 1:43 scale, each centimeter on the miniature corresponds to 43 centimeters on the real vehicle.
Concretely, a 1/18 scale Ferrari model is approximately 25-30 cm long, while in 1/43 scale it measures approximately 10 cm.
What scales are available?
Our model cars are mainly offered in 1/43, 1/24, 1/18 and 1/87 (HO) scales. The scale is always indicated in the product sheet.
The smaller the second number, the larger the model car (e.g. 1/18 is larger than 1/43).
