1976 Citroen GS review from Norway
"Magnificent"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
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.
