Was it modified by an Austrian company, or by an Austrian individual?

Sorry, I don't read German.  How did this differ from a standard 2CV?

Thank you for the point. Smoliner did some very interesting Citroen conversions and raced a DS, wearing always tie and suit

I was going to ask the same question (although I do speak German but still don't understand why spend money to get pretty much an identical car!)

Smoliner was the general distributor for Citroen cars in Austria. I think he didn't see any chance in selling the stock 2 CV in all its austerity. So he added some brightwork and a bulbous trunk lid to have more luggage space.

Wendax is absolutely correct. This ad says: Citroen 2CV in a new guise! The ideal people's car
