SIMCA 1200S COUPE

2-door 2+2-seater coupé.

An update of the original (1962-67) Bertone-styled coupé, with enlarged engine (80-85bhp), disc front brakes and 100mph-plus top speeds. Oversteer needed watching, and though some were sold here they were all in left-hand drive form. Pretty, but with the usual Italian-built rust problems. Looked faster than it was, but in a word, 'different'.
