Details

Yes, I am selling my beloved Citroen H Van, Minty. I have owned this van for over 20 years. 

We used it a lot back in the day but we have no use for it now. It has been converted to a camper van and had a full respray about 4 years ago. 

This is not your standard H Van, it has a 5 speed gearbox and a 4.2 rover V8 which has been rebuilt. It also has a stainless steel exhaust fitted and sounds like a TVR. It even has a towbar fitted.

We have done over 45,000 miles in it but then took it off the road to be overhauled. That was when we rebuilt the engine and resprayed it. 

We have done a lot of work to this H Van. The floor in the rear of the van is lowered by 50mm so I can stand upright in the van which means the complete rear floor was replaced at the time. 

The 2 front seats swivel round, it has a night heater to keep you warm at night however it needs to be plumbed in. 

The inside still needs to be finished as I started to do the inside but then decided to sell. This H Van is no GTi but it is probably the only H Van that will keep up with modern day traffic. I can easily exceed the motorway speed limit. 

The reason for selling it is that we just no longer use it.

It is near enough the same as the original H Van in fuel economy so do not think it will drink fuel like a jetliner. We had a bespoke aluminium fuel tank made for it.

I am more than happy to jump in this H Van and drive it to the South of France. 

Once we have sold it, we will put a brand new MOT on the H Van.

FAQ's about our 2cv's for sale

Please select from below

We put the same loving care into our restored 2cv‘s as we do to a full rebuild.

When we restore any of our 2cv’s we have a 422 point check list we go through for every restored 2cv.

There is a Link here with it all on so you can see for yourself what a thorough job we do.

A large number of our customers buy a 2cv from us just by seeing the photos on our web site. The first time they see the 2cv in person is on the day they collect the 2cv or when we deliver it.

So as a peace of mind we offer all customers who buy a restored 2cv from us a full refund of their deposit if on the day of Collection or delivery the 2cv is not in the condition you were expecting, . (If you paid for delivery. we cannot refund the delivery cost)

We work on a no rush and no hard sale policy with customers.

We never have sales prices on our 2cv’s. The price is the Price. We will never say “this price ends today, you need to think fast as we have somebody coming this afternoon to buy it”. NO!

If you need a little time to think about it then take your time. We are happy to put your name on a 2cv until 10am the next day. (no deposit required) so you can have time to make the right decision before committing without the risk of someone else buying it later in the day.  

If you are new to the wonderful world of the Citroen 2cv, then welcome! 

On the day you collect (or we deliver) your new 2cv we will spend as much time with you as you need to get used to your new friend. Generally speaking 10 to 20 minutes  is sufficient time for most people to feel confident driving a 2cv. if you need more time, no problem. We can even show you how to take the seats out for when you have your picnic!

We can deliver our 2cv’s world wide. If it is within Europe I normally deliver the 2cv myself, please contact us for a delivery price.

If it is outside Europe we use the company CARS https://www.carseurope.net. If you would like to arrange your own transport, we are happy to take it to any port (cost might apply).

All of our restored sales 2cvs come with a warranty. The warranty depends on the 2cv but all of our restored 2cvs  will come with a minimum of 3 months warranty.

However, if something goes wrong when your 2cv is only just outside of the warranty, we want to know about it so please let us know.
