One of the few factory-produced “Beach Cars”, and by far the most successful, was the Méhari, built with a simple plastic body mounted on a 2CV chassis.

It was, and still is, very popular in the best resorts of the Mediterranean Sea, like St. Tropez, Portofino or Pantelleria.

A thriving industry is still able to market almost every spare part for these cars, and therefore they are still kept in service.

Recognizing its value, Citroën themselves just launched a new Méhari with an electric drivetrain.

The car offered today has not been used for years and therefore will need a thorough recommission. Some details, like the instrument panel, are missing, but they are easily obtainable.

It represents a good opportunity for an easy restoration, in time for some serious fun in the coming summer.

It is offered without reserve.
