In 1988, Wolfgang Hoffmann developed the design and the first prototypes. A lot of Hoffmann 2CV Cabrios have been built as a homework project. Approximately 250 professionally manufactured vehicles left the workshop in Hohenfurch. The kit contains a fibre glass reinforced plastic body with steel frame, two side windows, soft-top, trunk lid and all necessary screws, bolts, hinges etc.
1700 Hoffmann 2CV were built in total, with approximately 250 of them having been built by Wolfgang Hoffmann at his factory in Hohenfurch, Germany, and the rest being assembled by consumers who ordered them as kits. They were exported across Europe with a small number also exported to the United States.[1]
The company that produced the Hoffmann 2CV remains active to this day, producing and selling spare parts for the Citroën 2CV, and other Citroën A-Types, such as stainless steel chassis and fibre glass body parts.
