The handling of the 2CV on the limit is far more trustworthy than a lot of cars, including moderns. You have to accept that the limit is 60 MPH and the worse you will do is understeer - which seems reasonably safe.
I think the 2CV along with various others (e.g. Ford Model T, Austin 7, VW Beetle, Fiat Topolino, Fiat 500, Austin A30/35, Mini, Fiat 127, Renault 4, Renault 5) are worthy of inclusion in the good looking thread for what they represent - pushing the envelope forward for minimal cars.
