The first one is my ancient 2CV AZLP (425 cm3 - 12HP) from 1959, which I restored with my father.

I named it "VIRIATUS" in memory of "Lusitanos" leader.

Long centuries ago, there was a peaceful and brave people who lived on the highest montains in Iberia. They were called by "Lusitanos" tribe.Their leader was Viriato. The brave and smart warrior who hardly fought against  romans invasions.

The romans took about 100 years to defeat them. Romans only could make it after Viriato has betrayed and then killed.

Lusitans were the first people who lived in this land long before PORTUGAL becomes as

a nation during XI century.

 

Here are some photos of "VIRIATUS"

The second one is an original and unique 2CV in whole world.The yellow 2CV of "Clube 2CV/ Dyane de Portugal".

This car was bought by our portuguese club on the last day of production in Mangualde Factory. The last cradle of 2CV.

It was exclusively painted with our club's colours under authorization of  main Citroen in France.
