Citroen 2CV with a BMW Motorcycle Engine

Citroen 2CV With BMW 1100 Motorcycle Engine

Sparrow Automotive produces a kit which allows the Citroen 2CV to run a modern oil cooled BMW R series flat twin engines. You can use either the single or twin spark versions ranging from 850 cc to 1200 cc and will work with standard 2CV late style transmission or four/five-speed Citroen GS/A transmission with a Citroen Visa 625cc bell housing. The videos below show Sparrow Automotive’s test mule featuring a BMW 1100 engine producing 95 horsepower. That might not sound like a lot of power but this car only weighs 1,499 lbs (680 kg).

  1. Between april 2019 and june 2020 Wolfgang Hoffmann realized a 2cv with 1200 cc BMW motorcycle engine. It was equipped with anti-roll bars and front disc brakes from Mercedes-Benz. The top speed is about 180 km/h. It is approved street legal (TÜV/MOT) and was recently taken over by the Swiss customer.
