CITROEN 2CV1987 · 0.6L PETROL

The roadworthiness of this vehicle cannot be verified due to a complete lack of recent testing data. The last recorded test took place on 12 July 2006, where the vehicle passed with no defects. Because no MOT tests have been logged for nearly twenty years, there is no evidence to suggest a stable maintenance trend or current mechanical viability for the car. The vehicle is effectively uncertified for road use based on available DVSA records. The recorded mileage of 57,193 miles reflects an average usage of approximately 1,466 miles per year over its 39-year lifespan. While low mileage often suggests less wear on the drivetrain and engine, the twenty-year gap in MOT history indicates the car likely sat stationary for long periods. Prolonged inactivity on a vehicle of this age frequently leads to the degradation of rubber components, perished brake lines, seized calipers, and internal corrosion that is not captured by low odometer readings. A buyer must conduct a comprehensive physical inspection focusing on the structural integrity of the chassis. Given the age and the gap in records, priority should be given to checking the sills, floor pans, and suspension mounting points for advanced structural rust. The braking system requires be inspection for seized wheel cylinders and perished flexible hoses. Additionally, the unique suspension geometry and rubber bushings should be examined for cracking or dry rot, as these materials degrade over time regardless of the mileage driven.
