This car is part of a small collection and has hardly been used. With some last TLC together with a re-spray, this diva will come fully into its own glory: a real true beauty. The design has stood the test of time and driving this car is always something else and one of life’s great pleasures.
A library of books, photos, workshop manuals, well documented invoices etc. will come with the sale
The car can be driven and tested on the road. I owned a small collection but I kept the Citroen SM until the last, just because I really loved it. It's actually a shame i've driven so little in it. The performance of the car, the fun to drive it, the lovely and comfortabel seats and its incredible design. It just drives and handles better than most modern cars.
The modifications makes the car very reliable and makes you forget the bad reputation. The SM is one of those landmark machines, something special and till today you see modern cars picking up the innovative features of a car which was his time ahead.
