Vanclee Mungo

Vanclee Mungo Brand: Vanclee Model: Mungo Release date: 1983 Mileage: 64,500 km (5 digit counter) The model Vanclee is a Belgian manufacturer specialized in buggies based on Volkswagen. We are therefore quite far from the Citroën Mehari which is hidden under this model. In fact, the company decided to take the Citroën 2CV to produce a vehicle equivalent to the Mehari.The reason for this is that the Mehari was banned from the German market because of its ABS bodywork, which was considered too flammable. Vanclee, based on the chassis and mechanics of the 2CV, offers its interpretation of the playful and rustic leisure vehicle with a polyester body.After a first version appeared in 1978, Vanclee proposes the Mungo from 1980 which is a stylistic evolution. On the mechanical side, it is equipped with a 602cm3 twin-cylinder engine developing 29Cv.This Belgian version of the Mehari is very rare, only 250 copies were made!
