1973 Citroen GS 1015 review from Slovenia
"Spaceship from the seventies"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Oil dripping from return pipes.
Clutch worn.
Destroyed bearing of an upper front suspension arm.
Torn seats (from age)
Some rust, but not critical (yet)
General comments?
I got the car from the original owner with original everything (even tires). After a bigger service by an Cit-enthusiast mechanic (don't go to Citroen dealers, please!) the car goes like new. It glides over bad roads like a speedboat, engine buzzes and never misses a beat. It might not be the fastest car on the road, but once you learn to drive it properly (try not to loose speed in corners) it's great, brakes set standard then and are still good today (all 4 disc, inboard at front).
And it looks really cool, stylish outside and futuristic inside (Cyclops eye speedometer).
Buy one today because they might be extinct tomorrow!
