Description
This beautifully restored Citroen 2CV6 Special was supplied new on the 18th of January 1989, supplied new by S. Woodcock & Son (Rugby) Ltd in Sunrise Red. The 2V comes with its original manuals and service book confirming the supplying dealership looked after the car in its early life with services stamped in the book at its 1000-mile first service in 1989 and then in 1990 at 2775 miles. The 2CV was then serviced elsewhere at 7277 and 11891 miles before the 2CV Service Centre in Birmingham began maintaining the car with services at 14216, 21007, 26726, 31959 and finally at 45895 miles in 1999.
The 2CV was then laid up off the road for many years and in late 2019, early 2020 it was subject of a full rebuild with former Bradford-based specialists 2CV City. We can see the body has been fully restored and re-painted, a brand-new galvanised chassis fitted, the interior re-trimmed and mechanically fully overhauled. Since completion in 2020 the 2CV has only covered 1, 000 miles. We supplied this characterful Citroen to a customer based in West Yorkshire who has enjoyed the Citroen for 2 years and has arrived with us in the same exceptional condition we supplied it in. Upon supplying the car it was subject to an MOT test, a full service having the oil changed, new spark plugs, and the suspension was greased as required.
TIG 2163 has the lovely provenance of its early service history and only records three former keepers from new on the V5. Having been rebuilt by 2CV experts, the condition several years on is magnificent as expected with the low use. The bodywork is superb, the galvanised chassis first class, the general presentation delightful throughout. On the road the 2CV performs incredibly well as expected, it's fantastic fun on the road and is ready to enjoy.
