Yes I have one too! In Australia, sold it 4 years ago regrettably and randomly found the very same one I sold and bought it back again this week! Will repaint and get on the road again next year 😊

Die 4 Zylinderboxer vom Citroen GS und GSA sind richtig gute Motoren 👍🏻👍🏻. Sie sind sehr haltbar und langlebig. Und der dieser Motorenklang ist sowieso einer der schönsten Motorengeräusche , die ich kenne 💖 . Könnte man stundenlang hören.

An sich ja, andererseits: Der aggressive Sound vom Alfa Boxer mit 4x-Vergasern hat auch was 😛 Dem GS merkt man akustisch doch ein wenig die Verwandtschaft zur Ente an. Er klingt halt recht leichtfüssig, was aber auch am Mangel als Last/Schleppverlusten (Getriebe) liegen wird.

@@martinb.770 Den ,,Alfasound" , den konnte mein GSA damals auch : einer der wenigen Autos , die sich mit einem Loch im Endtopf richtig kernig anhören . Ich hatte fortan bei jedem Endtopf die Steindämmwolle entfernt , weil die nur sich mit Auspuffwasser vollgesogen und den Endtopf innerhalb von 2-3 Jahren von innen zerfressen hatte . Nebenbei hatte der GSA akustisch ungefähr doppelt soviel PS 👍🏻😃 . Mit offenen Fenstern im Tunnel gas geben war immer ein Muss😝 Gut , so könnte man natürlich beliebig viele gutklingende Motoren dazu rechnen : den 5 Zylinder von Audi , den Käfer , die Honda Goldwing 1500 , mehrere US Autos, usw ... Fakt ist , das diese Klangvielfalt seit den 2000der Jahren durch Dämmung und Abgasreinigung merklich verloren geht und sich an die aktuellen Autos die jetzige junge Generation sich ich in 30 Jahren mal sehnsüchtig zurück erinnert ,, Mann , weißt Du noch , wie schön die Autos mit Verbrennungsmotor gekungen haben ?" , wenn es nur noch diese fürchterlichen Kirmismobile gibt .

It's nice to see English people taking an interest in our engines and especially our wine. as for the cheese, I advise you with French wine "CAHORS" to eat one of our cheeses "le ROQUEFORT" spread on toasted and buttered bread longue vie à la France !!!

Very fine ! The GS was à great french car in the 70's and first 80's The first models were hard to start and to warm up but they improved after One girl friend of me was driving her father's GS in the 80's: the half automatic model ; in winter you had to be patient, but on the road, the car was very cunfortable, easy and secured Thanks again !

@@bourbaki5730 J'en ai eu d'occasion (de 1971) pendant 10 ans, de 1983 à 1993, après avoir possédé deux 2 CV d'occasion aussi durant 10 ans également. A force de les réparer, j'ai fini par apprendre par cœur la mécanique Citroën. À ce jour, soit après 40 ans, j'ai encore de la nostalgie pour la 2 CV, parce qu'elle me rappelle ma jeunesse. C'est cette voiture qui a bercé mes enfants aussi. On ne s'arrêtait pas de faire des randonnées en Algérie.

Great wee engines I always thought that with some mods they could perform better I gave away my one a year or two ago just could not work on it, my back is shot so I thought give it to someone else, I still love these cars especially the 1220 and that English dash you have done a nice job of that engine
