Regardless...bombs away!!!
Honestly, when the 2CV is the most sensible option then you know you are doing something right.

Why the heck is the classic car market in the Netherlands so damn good?

lol.. i dont need a car for my commute
so yeah... my criteria for a car is needs to seat 3
easy to work on coz i expect to be broken down a lot
preferably a classic coz i dont have to pay roadtax on those and insurance is dirt cheap

no road tax on classics... i guess
i’d still be wary of a classic lancia tho.... parts are so hard to find for those

An E n t e would be very nice (no problem with spares, or at least, better availability than with the Taunus or Hillman), but maybe not as your one and only vehicle.
Isn’t it a bit cheap? 2CVs seem to be pretty expensive in Europe nowadays.

prices here seem to be between 2 and 20 grand for running ones
im not entirely serious... but i also dont need a car... so whatever i do end up buying when the time comes will likely be something incredibly unreliable , easy to work on, and seats at least 3
oh also a classic coz road tax exempt

Wouldn’t you try a Panda (old) again? Those things are disappearing fast, particularly the early ones with cart springs at the back. I bet they are going to be serious money one day.

i’d love another panda (missus not so much)

And a firs-generation Y10? Those are cute and quality was not too bad. A well-maintained one with the FIRE engine should go on
forever.

Wow these are all NP. Didn't need to see these considering I'll be in the Netherlands over New year's. Off to look up importing fees.

Depending on how painful/expensive the export process would be you could probably sell the 2CV to a stateside OPPO pretty easily.
Depending on my finances at the time I may be referring to myself.

lol pretty sure getting one shipped over from here shouldnt be too hard.... we got a big ole harbour
no idea about how pricey it would be tho
im thinking your best bet would be finding a local importer

And that's the one I really like. Most of these are nicer than my DD Crown Vic p 71. You should see some of the crap cans on the road here in Michigan but I'm sure you've heard.

I love them all - especially at those prices.
But for the Ring, there can only be one answer.
2CV and post a video of your lap!

The hardest part would be restraining your giggling the whole lap, I suspect!

restraining?
man that whole video would be me laughing like a maniac on the downhill and egging the car on on the uphill... and possibly comments like... oh look... a vespa... lets catch it.... oh.... it ran away

Is this a serious request to go car shopping for you in the Netherlands? Are you willing to rent a car/buy from a neighboring country?
First hit (in more ways than one).
