As I won't be around Tuesday morning here is tomorrow's offering.
Continuing our meander round car producing countries I present the Citroen SM, often mistakenly called the 'Citroen Maserati'. While some models had the motor out of Maserati Bora, the Maserati connection refers to Citroen 's purchase of Maserati shortly prior to the launch of the SM.
Less than 9000 produced, all in fastback form. A few coachbuilders developed 'shooting brake' versions, the best of which is in the final photo below.
Even with the Bora engine the SM only had around 180bhp. However, the use of pneumatics and hydraulics in virtually every aspect of the car produced a gloriously smooth ride, certainly the most comfortable car I have ever ridden in.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder on this one, I love it.
Another very rare car and an appreciating classic.
