Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1981 Citroen 2CV Charleston, a UK-produced model, features a burgundy and black paint scheme, a well-kept interior, and is celebrated for being an early drum brake variant. It has been a part of the 2CV Owners Club, winning an award in 2014, and comes with a history file and registration document, though the MOT has expired.
Condition
6
The car presents well, with original paint and a well-maintained interior. However, the expired MOT and the need for a new one, plus the vendor scores, indicate that while it's in good shape, it's not quite in excellent condition. I would say it is in good condition and requires some work.
