Ah, the Mehari. They fetch around the £3500 mark in top nick so the price doesn't seem to bad. Plastic (ABS) bodywork and a lovely rust-attracting metal spaceframe. I'd love one! Did you know the French Military were into them in a big way? Then there was the RAF with their 2cv pick-ups....
I'll get my anorak...

In 1986 we had a Merhari as a rental car in Crete, with 6 of us in it up the mountains!

You're not wrong there. White, high mileage (I know it's not that high and it shouldn't matter but it does), damaged and the guy practically admits he's been using it as a van.
