You can buy a Dutch sports car for less than 15,000 euros

Autovisie is always looking for used cars for enthusiasts and therefore scours the lists of the sales site Gaspedal.nl. This time we found a Dutch sports car that you can buy for less than 15,000 euros: a Burton.

Officially, Burton is not a car brand, but it converted classic Citroën 2CVs. The Zutphen company no longer exists. Yet more than 1,400 copies have been sold and you can therefore find them as used cars.

Dutch sports car

This makes it the cheapest Dutch sports car that you can buy as a used car, because Donkervoort and Spyker are much more expensive.

A Burton is basically a Citroën 2CV. This used car has the 602cc petrol engine that is good for about 29 hp. So underneath it just remains a duck. We cannot call it a real sports car, although the convertible does look sporty and this model weighs only 620 kilograms (roadworthy mass).

The used car is from 1984 and is therefore free of road tax. According to the odometer, the model has 17,263 kilometers of experience and the Dutch car also looks good in the photos. By the way, this copy has not been driving around as a Burton since 1984. The advertisement does not say exactly when it was converted, but Burton has only been building cars since 2000.

The found occasion

With simple technology, a nice design and an open roof, it is a nice sports car for driving fun routes on summer days. In addition, the car is not expensive, both in purchase and recurring (insurance and maintenance) costs. The found used car is offered for 14,9000 euros.
