No Speedlimit, only some traffic, going 180 km/h / 110 mph smooth and easy 👍

I believe that it was designed as a GT - Gran Tourissimo - European style. Cross country forays through the Pyrenees, Alps, hotel hopping through France, the Autostrade and Autobahn. All in supreme comfort and stye. Great gas milage and large trunk for the luggage.. yes... down to the Rivera now.

Beautiful video.. When I looked, there were sweaty palms and shaking hands. It was so mesmerizing and there was a smile on my face. I hope that I will ride an elegant SM at least once in my life. I'm going to cry with happiness, honestly.

Thank you so much for your nice comment! I’m really glad that this short video gives you some joy. It’s getting winter time here soon, salt on the streets, and the SM will have to rest and wait for spring to come… Maybe there’s opportunity to drive it within he next days 🙏

Yes, how true. Car design once was real art, and nowadays helpless crumbling of ugly monstrous plastic parts 😱

@@2512MaTHias And now, figure this out: this car is more than 50 (!) years old and still by modern standards it would be an understatement to just call this a contemporary interior, not to mention the build quality that looks exceptional. I can see some design cues shared with the GS - a car I personally used to drive (Robert Opron after all) - I can see a few bits here and there shared too, of course the SM is a class on its own, I can only feel sorry for a derelict SM I once saw on the edge of the road and I my sorrow deepens now cause then at the time I wasn't aware of the fortune to see one in the flesh without realising the kind of car the SM is and the importance of it. Great true Citroen.

😳 I think John Kruff once got the FIRST SM ever delivered to public (but may be wrong?), nevertheless, I think his SM is still around anywhere. Fiat Dino with some other famous italian V6 engine should also be a really nice drivable car 👍

@martian9999 Ай бұрын

ha!, the engine sounds like a 3-cylinder most of the time... No problem, I like the sound of triplets. But seriously, the SM may be the very first SUV coupé. It has good ground clearance which can be raised to excellent ground clearance. It is sporty yet supremely comfortable. By the way, the silhouette of today's Citroen C5X reminds me of the SM. Long nose, short tail, good ground clearance, long wheelbase. Of course, while the SM is a work of art, the C5X is just another semi-stupid company-car compromise, but it's nice to see a wee bit of heritage in a modern Cit.

Thank you so much for your message, I’m really glad you like my SM. 😊 It was a ‚body off‘ restauration, completely taken apart to pieces and rebuilt with a lot of new parts over 18 years... It has a Merak SS engine, 3,0 with 220 hp, manual transmission, and really is fun to drive this powerful smooth machine… I didn’t count money exactly, but could have bought in fact two good SM for all… never mind, I never will sell it again. My dream car also… 👍😊

@bobcomment8589 Жыл бұрын

Jai senti un fou dans la direction au redémarrage! Beim Wiederanfahren in der Kurve habe ich eine Unschärfe in der Richtung gespürt. Vorderachsproblem (Kugelgelenke oder Spurstangen). I felt a blur in the direction when restarting in the bend. front axle problem (ball joints or tie rods). Avec le rappel asservi de direction il faut faire glisser le volant dans ses mains, jamais tourner les bras!!! With the servo steering reminder you have to slide the steering wheel in your hands, never turn your arms!!!
