A 1989 Citroën 2CV with a CAP Clean value of £10 was sold recently at Manheim Auctions, A1 Knottingley for £1,000.
The seven-owner Citroën with no V5 or MOT, entered by The Co-operative Motor Group was bought via Simulcast.
David Parnham, auction centre manager, said: “The Citroën 2CV is full of character and a firm favourite with people of all ages. Although much sought after I never expected it to sell for such a price. Its appearance in the auction hall certainly brought a smile to everyone’s face.”
