The seller offers for sale a 1979 Citroën Méhari 2+2 Cabriolet, finished in the rare Hoggar beige colour. This example was imported from Italy, where it underwent a professional restoration while retaining originality. It features a 602 cc 2-cylinder petrol engine paired with a manual transmission. The car runs well, shifts smoothly, and starts without hesitation. There is no smoke, unusual noise, visible rust, or accident history. The paintwork presents well, and although the bonnet isn’t glossy, it suits the character of this model. The interior is new, and the car includes its set of soft tops. With its light plastic body and simple mechanics, this Méhari offers a unique combination of vintage appeal and summer driving pleasure.
The Citroën Méhari was introduced in 1968 as a practical yet playful vehicle, built on the platform of the 2CV. Known for its lightweight ABS plastic body and open-air versatility, it quickly became a symbol of carefree motoring in Southern Europe. The Méhari’s minimalist design, ease of maintenance, and surprising off-road ability have earned it a loyal following among collectors. Its enduring popularity lies in the freedom it offers—perfect for coastal drives, countryside adventures, and sunny weekends. A well-preserved or restored example like this 1979 model captures the essence of relaxed French motoring at its finest.
