Description
2cv Hoffmann Cabriolet.
For the eagle eyed amongst you the advertised price is not correct, but is the default on this site for POA entries.
For those who are well versed in the history of Hoffmann Cabriolets you will be aware of the absolute rarity of this type of 2CV and this is why setting a sale price has been so difficult.
Therefore I am willing to receive and consider all sensible and reasonable offers. I am confident that you may not have seen such a Beautiful example and the opportunity is here for you or the special person in your life to be the proud owner of this magnificent vehicle.
This outstanding show wining car is sadly being parted with from my deceased brother’s estate.
The car is now uk registered as a historic vehicle therefore tax exempt and boasts new electronic ignition, new plugs and ht leads, new front calipers, brake pads and copper brake pipework along with new master cylinders.
As the photos show the bodywork is in outstanding condition as is the bright work and polished stainless steel bumpers. The wheels and tyres are similarly in first class condition.
Interior is of equal quality and condition the rally styled leather adjustable seats are in excellent condition (with only slight firming of the seat bases currently being softened with leather food) as is the stylish wood and aluminium steering wheel.
Included in the sale are many 2CV new boxed stock parts which formed part of the best in show prize from its most recent show entry, the parts include brake discs lights, ignition components, etc
The fully retractable and removable roof is in unmarked condition and extends the usability of the car in the unlikely event that you venture out or get caught in the rain.
The original French plates are fitted, for those who wish to research the cars history, or for those wishing to return the car to France, however as you can see the correct type of new uk plates are as shown and will be fitted upon request. This outstanding car will enhance the most prestigious garage or collection of historic vehicles.
Equally the ease of care and low running costs make it a perfect companion for special days out and enables the owner to attend any car show or event with pride.
Under the bonnet there is a typically quirky 2CV set of air horns and this fun powered approach can be further witnessed in the spacious boot where a high powered speaker system has been installed (however this is easily removed without adverse effect on the car)
As many of you will know Jay Leno has an identical car however in my humble opinion this car has much superior chrome work and the colour scheme combination further enhances this California styled car. You tube.
The final pictures show the car at the world 2cv show in Poland where it was selected to represent the Bretagne entry and also near the beach in southern Brittany.
