Looks like it a PL 17 Dyna I think.

Well done, Zel gets it with the first answer, and Gibbo gets it for precision, and Jim....your confirmation is correct but unfortunately no "Old engine Oil" prize this time
. I am going to assume that the vehicle in the rear is just too one-spanner. The attached caption from the magazine reads...
From "Gazoline"
Citroën mange du Panhard !
Tout un symbole. La Panhard PL 17 s'apprête à tirer sa révérence en ce printemps 1965. Derrière, la klaxonnant sans ménagement, la 2 CV AZU lui rappelle qu'il est temps de lui laisser sa place sur les chaînes du quai d'Ivry. Un sacré revirement de situation pour la marque doyenne qui abandonnera là toute ambition automobile.
(Par François Roussel)
Google translates this as
Citroën eat Panhard!
A symbol. The Panhard PL 17 is about to bow out in spring 1965. Behind honking bluntly, the 2CV AZU reminds him it's time to leave his place on the chains of Ivry dock. Quite a turnaround for the Dean brand abandon here all automobile ambition.

The Gazoline link above takes you to a page of Francois Roussel's "drawings of the month" click on an image and you get the little narrative behind the picture, which you can use google to help or hinder with the translation
I love that style of drawing-
Thierry Dubois and
Jean Luc Delvaux being two other illustrators who also produce absolutely brilliant drawings in that style.
