Citroën Méhari, 1980, Mehari - NO RESERVE.

AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

GENERAL

A 1980 Citroën Méhari, fully restored after being rescued from a garage where it had remained inactive for many years. The vehicle has undergone a 100% comprehensive recovery process with the aim of returning it to its original vitality. The result is a mythical and charming convertible, ready for its new owner to enjoy it with complete confidence from the first moment.

BODYWORK AND PAINT

The bodywork was fully dismantled to repair any imperfections before being completely repainted. It currently shines with a superb gloss and color, presented in a condition that requires no aesthetic attention. All the lights and lenses on the body have been replaced with new components, enhancing its like-new appearance. The underbody is free of rust or rot, showing a completely solid condition consistent with the work carried out.

MECHANICS

The mechanical section is in optimal condition after a thorough rebuild. The engine was dismantled and rebuilt in full, as was the transmission, which now offers very smooth gear changes. The complete electrical system has been renewed, replacing all cables and components. The original carburetor has also been refurbished, and both the braking system and the four tires are completely new, guaranteeing safe and reliable operation.

INTERIOR

The cabin is in perfect condition thanks to a detailed restoration. The seats were removed for professional reupholstery and new gauges and odometers have been installed. Other renewed details include the footboard, which has been replaced and repainted, as well as the door handles, which are also new. The interior breathes the freshness of a car just finished.

DOCUMENTATION

The vehicle will be delivered with all paperwork in order and with the technical inspection (ITV) freshly passed, ensuring that the buyer does not have to deal with immediate administrative tasks to put it into circulation.

PICKUP

Vehicle pickup will take place at the seller's location after the auction ends. Prospective buyers are advised to check logistical details for transportation once the lot is awarded.

OTHER INFORMATION

This lovely Méhari represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a French motoring icon in concours condition. Having been restored from the chassis up to the last mechanical detail, it stands as an ideal piece both for leisure on coastal beaches and as part of a classic car collection.

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.
