Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1962 Citroën HY presents a fantastic opportunity for a catering or camper conversion, boasting stylish French charm and a long UK history. While it has been running briefly, it requires significant re-commissioning, particularly the brakes, and lacks a V5C, making it an ideal project for those seeking a versatile and iconic commercial vehicle with growing value.
Condition
3
The van has been off the road for some time and requires re-commissioning. It has been running briefly with fresh fuel and a jump start, but the brakes require significant attention. The catering equipment may need inspection, servicing, or replacement. No V5C is present, requiring the purchaser to apply for a replacement.

Description
Description Fantastic opportunity for potential promotion/catering business; in need of some re-commissioning; stylish French charm Few commercial vehicles are as instantly recognisable or as universally admired as the Citroën HY.
With its unmistakable corrugated bodywork and unmistakable French charm, the HY has become an icon in its own right, finding favour as everything from campers and food trucks to coffee bars, promotional vehicles and even garden offices.
This 1962 example has most recently been used as a catering vehicle and remains fitted with a range of equipment including a fridge, freezer, sink, coffee machine and useful cupboard storage.
Prospective purchasers intending to return it to catering use should expect to inspect, service or replace these items as appropriate to meet their own requirements.
The van is fully UK registered as 206 UYP and appears to have been on British roads since 1966, giving it a long-established UK history.
Unfortunately, no V5C is present...
