A simple act of kindness has captured hearts after local mobile detailer Lucas spotted a classic Citroën 2CV leaving Coles and offered to restore it—free of charge.
Moved by memories of the iconic car, Lucas took to social media to track down the owner, writing, "I’m keen to give it a proper clean-up, no charge, just for the love of old gems like this one."
The community quickly rallied behind the post, helping connect Lucas with the vehicle’s owner. An appointment was arranged, and before long, the beloved 2CV was sparkling once again.
“In case anyone was wondering how the story ended – here she is, shining like she deserves!” Lucas posted, sharing photos of the freshly detailed car.
"Big thanks to the lovely owners of this classic Citroën 2CV for their awesome attitude and for allowing me to help bring out such a great version of this beauty."
The feel-good story served as a reminder of the power of community and how a shared love for something as simple as a vintage car can bring people together.
Lucas said he’s always happy to help where he can especially when it means reviving a classic.
