If you own a Citroën 2cv you can escape the reality of our modern lives. Driving in the city, facing the traffic and stress will mean nothing to you.

Previous month I have posted about a Triportor. Last week in Izmir I have detected another one, again in blue but this time paint-modified. Does this scooter-like van have any horsepower? I mean tiger power 
Distance does not matter when you time travel with this old-timer.
These oldtimers were used to be a lot in Izmir. They are still beautiful.
His name is everywhere in schools, universities, stadiums, hospitals, bridges, parks. Many cars have his signature is on the windows. Youngsters have it as a tattoo. I have to admit that he was beyond time but I do not get why people get attached physically. On the contrary his values are being constantly attacked which is a sad story. Photo above is taken in Brussels.
The Arçelik Triportör was produced in Turkey in the late 1960’s by the Turkish consumer goods manufacturer Arçelik. The vehicle is based on Italian Lambretta scooter mechanicals and has a fibreglass body. As the vehicle was very slim it was a popular solution to the problem of urban delivery in narrow, crowded streets.
This blue Triportor was parked in narrow streets of Alsancak Izmir.
Time is beyond discussion if you own or drive a Citroen 2cv. There is not such word “neglected”. It is and it will be part of your life, forever.
I would like to see more of these electric vehicles in Brussels.
Zen Car is a wholly new concept of green mobility. It is a simple and practical system of car-sharing. And not just any car! A 100% electric, silent and non-pollutant car!
Hiring an electric car in time-sharing means:
you don’t have the annoyances that come with owning a car
the ideal addition to public transport
the alternative to buying a car
a concrete gesture towards sustainable mobility
a simplicity solution for the city
a nice way of reducing your car expenditure
Electric car-sharing, it’s yours when you need it. The rest of the time, others will use it. With this, you will join a new vision of the world and of mobility. Think of yourself, but also of others. Including plants, the city, the air…
In sixties you might call Mini Cooper as Seven. Perhaps Che was called Buddha…
You know it is cheaper to bike. If you park your bike for days you do not have to pay any parking tickets!
