1970 CITROËN MÉHARI

Chassis No: VS7AYCA0000CA0129
Almost certainly inspired by BMC’s Mini Moke, the Citroën Méhari first appeared in prototype form in 1967 and like its British counterpart was based on a standard production car. In the Citroën’s case, it was the Dyane 6 version of the inimitable 2CV, so the Méhari featured the latter’s torsion-bar suspension and the air-cooled 602cc twin-cylinder engine driving the front wheels. The open body was made of ABS plastic and, like the Moke, a detachable soft-top and side screens served as weather protection.
Taking its name from a type of Camel known for its speed, the Méhari was launched at the Paris Auto Show in October 1968 and would remain in the range for the next 20 years, only disappearing when 2CV production ceased in France in 1988, by which time a total of 144,953 had been made.
This wonderful Méhari was imported from Spain in 2017 where the previous owners had undertaken a sympathetic restoration of the car. This work included a new hood and side screens as well as re-upholstering the interior. Currently showing approximately 37,000kms on the odometer which the owner believes to be genuine, this truly eye-catching Méhari wants for nothing and is ready to be enjoyed by the lucky new custodian. There is a NOVA certificate of entry and a UK V5C has already been applied for.
