I HAD BIG PLANS FOR IT

 

I bet you did.  Until you realised it isn't actually the film car

It was up for sale in May this year and surprisingly hasn't sold it.

That's the ex-Practical Classics one that sold a few months ago, having previously been owned by a little old lady in Cardiff all its life.  Think the seller paid about £700 for it, if I recall, but it might have had some sort of fault.

 

Deffo would.

but the lights stay on for like 20 seconds, so its not like they are left on for AGES!

 

but more importantly, how clean does that strada convertible look!

 

surely they weren't that good when the car was brand new?

 

and i wonder if it REALLY that nice looking in real life.

Don't know to be fair. Thought there was an issue* so never left them on long enough to find out :)

A rather tired 2cv, Cornish registration, v5 and keys present, 66K on the clock, not been run for many years, body work rough but restore able, needs a new chassis floor and sills, i have not inspected fully, i have had the engine turning over and it has got spark so running shouldn't be to difficult. Bonnet has come away from hinge, roof good, many usable parts, inner wings also good. Need it gone due to loss of storage and its currently at my work! Must be transported away as it does NOT start or drive. 
Box of bits in the back come with, no rear seat but fronts are in good condition. 
More pictures available on request, viewing welcome.

Not on the MOT system. Always a good sign. Salty at £500

Too much money - it's parts cost at the current condition which is basically an engine and gearbox cost. £200. You'll spend £2k on it without noticing much improvement in condition.
