1976 Citroen GS 1.1

Summary:

Magnificent

Faults:

Clutch was renewed.

Leather imitation interior badly sun damaged.

General Comments:

Genius car. Comfort machine NR 1!

I guess you have to be attracted to this special little car, and I was.

The looks, the technical solutions, every little detail really. I haven't found road comfort like this in any other car I have driven, be that Mercedes or VW.

And not to mention the soul of this car! That's perhaps the biggest + side of this car. Only downside really was that its quite under-engined, but I learned that you don't need the best acceleration to have a nice road trip.

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

1974 Citroen GS Club 1.2

Summary:

A fantastic seldom futuristic classic car

Faults:

Rear brake piston seized after long time storage.

Front headlamps replaced.

General Comments:

A seldom seen car that's been neglected for too many years. Mine was found outside a barn and hadn't been used since 1991. Still it's in good condition, thanks to the air-cooled engine and the early rust treatment. The brake calipers had to be overhauled and now the brakes work fine. The hand brake too.

Nickname for the car: La Lune Bleue (The Blue Moon), because it's nowadays so seldom and it's blue.
