The Citroen 2CV was designed to take a farmer, his wife & several trays of eggs to market across a ploughed field. VW's response took egg production to market; although it scored well for product freshness, poor emissions and unreliable output made it as successful as the Ford Egsel.

Edsel was Henry Ford's son: the car was named after him.
