History / Overview
The Citroën Mehari is an iconic leisure car built in ABS, belonging to the category also known as "spiaggina". It used the platform and mechanics of the 2CV. The latest series of this kind up for auction was produced from 1980 and is the most sought after for its engine with a twin-barrel carburetor, a dashboard with two gauges, disc brakes, and a front end updated for better cooling.
EXTERNAL
The car body is the original factory Citroën, with minimal signs and touch-ups due to time. It has been completely repainted by the previous owner in the Citroën color “Giallo Atacama” code AC 317 and is presented in good, restored condition. A polishing and detailing treatment has just been completed.
The undercarriage and the chassis are generally in good condition, the vehicle's floors are solid, no signs of accidents have been detected, and the car has been lovingly maintained by the previous owner.
Internal
The interior is in good condition and recently restored; it is equipped with the optional rear bench and is homologated for 4 seats on the registration papers. The rubber mats and the soft top are in excellent condition, as is the original dashboard. The car is complete with the full soft top, including the upper, side and rear sections.
MECHANICS
Mechanically the engine is original as per the registration document, it starts easily and runs, several documented mechanical works have been carried out and it is ready for use. The car is pleasant to drive on the road, starts easily and the gears engage smoothly. The technical inspection was just passed in January 2026, valid until January 2028 with no defects found; however a general check before normal use is always recommended.

Disclaimer
Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
