AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A unique opportunity for Matra brand enthusiasts.
1981 Matra Murena 1.6 restored. 15" wheels, homologated in the logbook, and a new and heavily modified engine.
Inspection carried out February 2026.
The car has been fully restored in terms of bodywork, engine, and running gear.
The electrical system has been redesigned and built from scratch.
To avoid modifying the original engine (available for sale), another Murena 1.6 engine was purchased and prepared.
Specifically the engine has cast pistons, has been balanced, and features a Maurelec intake manifold with two 40 Weber double-barrel carburetors.
The gearbox has been overhauled.
All coolant hoses (including the lower ones that lead to the front radiator) and the fuel lines have been replaced. The two cooling radiators have been overhauled.
The car should have about 115–120 hp and the engine is practically new.
DOCUMENTATION
Includes Italian documents.
Vehicle visible in Mestrino, Italy.

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.
