Amazing value "retro-modded" Jeep...The Hotchkiss M201 was the standard light transport vehicle used by the French army from shortly after the war until well into the 1980s.

It started as a World War II Jeep, built under licence and in many respects was little changed forty years later.

In France, it is usually simply called "La Jeep".

Hotchkiss, a French car company had by now built up a reasonable understanding of these vehicles, having been the supplier of manufactured spare parts to the Maltournée based assembly operation, and having also itself been producing Jeeps, primarily for civilian use under licence from Willys.

In 1955, 465 Jeeps were produced, and these were called Hotchkiss Licence MBs.

From 1956, the vehicle was known simply as the Hotchkiss M201.

This 1962 example has been owned by our vendor since 2005and maintained by his private mechanic who has 'retro-modded' La Jeep to include the accessories of a WWII-era Willys.

Cosmetically near identical to its W...
