With its sleek lines, the Dyane isn’t as cuddly as the 2CV, but its more rational shape suits it very well. The concave shape of the doors gives them more strength without sacrificing space, a clever invention. The large tailgate makes it easier to access.

Especially in white, you can clearly see the sharp creases in the bodywork. Jacques Charreton put a lot of effort into this in a relatively short time, two years from the start of the design to actual production. The dashboard is also much more 70s-style than its older brother. Furthermore, much of the chassis and drivetrain is borrowed from the 2CV. This was the intention: to save costs and be able to build the car on the same production line as the 2CV and Ami.

This Dyane rolled off the line in Rennes-La Janais less than a month after production started. It features a 425cc, 6V, 21 hp, and a centrifugal clutch. On September 21, 1967, it was registered and moved to the Eure-et-Loire department, just south of Paris. In 1993, it drove to Laon with a new owner, and in 2000, it was sold to Belgium and then to the Netherlands.

Here, it ended up with an enthusiast in Brabant, who completely disassembled and rebuilt it. The bodywork and panels were repaired and repainted in the original color, and the mechanicals were completely overhauled. The interior was renewed.

The Dyane was then driven for several years, until a few years ago, it ended up with one of our customers. Due to the common combination of too many cars and too little time, we are now looking for a new owner to enjoy this beautiful and very early Dyane.
