- New soft top, upholstery, and vinyl seats
- Original reportedly unrestored bodywork with honest, age-commensurate character
- New wheels and tyres reported in very good condition
The Appeal
The Citroën 2CV 6 is one of the most recognisable and endearing cars ever produced. With its air-cooled 602 cc flat-twin engine, interconnected suspension, and wonderfully minimalist design, the 2CV offers a driving experience quite unlike anything else, and continues to command a loyal and enthusiastic following.
This 1985 example has benefited from a comprehensive programme of mechanical renewal. The interior presents smartly with fresh upholstery and a new soft top, while the bodywork remains in original unrestored condition. The paintwork shows wear in places and would benefit from some attention, but the overall effect is one of genuine, honest character. For those seeking a well-sorted, mechanically renewed 2CV with real charm, this one merits a closer look.
