1986 CITROEN 2CV0.6L Petrol

The 1986 Citroen 2CV presents a currently roadworthy status following a clean pass on 13 October 2025 at 90,584 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable, showing no recurring advisories or mechanical faults across the last three years of testing. The vehicle cleared its most recent examination without issue, though the preceding failure on 1 October 2025 at 90,573 miles listed no defects, indicating an administrative or presentation discrepancy rather than a mechanical defect. Recorded mileage sits at 90,584 against an approximate 40-year lifespan, equating to roughly 2,265 miles per year. The odometer advanced only 428 miles between the September 2023 test at 90,155 miles and the October 2025 pass at 90,584 miles. Such low annual accumulation suggests extended periods of storage or light recreational use rather than daily driving. The sparse record shows no rapid wear cycles, and all five entries carry either a pass or a no-defect failure, leaving little evidence of neglected consumables. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of the 2CV's chassis and floor pans for corrosion, as these models are prone to structural rust despite clean MOT outcomes. The linked hydropneumatic suspension and brake circuits warrant pressure testing, given the vehicle's age and low usage that can degrade seals through inactivity. Verify the October 2025 failure cause with DVSA, since a no-defect fail is irregular and may reflect a documentation error rather than roadworthiness. Previous keepers appear to have stored the car well, with minimal mileage and no advised repairs across the visible history. The absence of tyre, brake, or exhaust advisories implies basic upkeep was maintained, though the 39-year-old mechanical components demand scrutiny beyond the test record before purchase.
