A bit of history

Presented at the Paris Motor Show in 1955, to say that it made a lasting impression is an understatement. This unidentified rolling object impressed specialists and visitors alike, both with its new shapes and its "on-board technology" as we might say today.

Single-body bodywork, aerodynamic lines, constant trim, the list is long and the brand's fans will quickly forgive its youthful shortcomings as it proved to be so endearing. It will have been the chic car of the French bourgeoisie, that of ministers and other official figures, it will have shone in rallies, dressed in dresses as different as ambulances or exclusive convertibles.

It has made generations of motorists dream and is still today the delight of many enthusiasts... because it still drives, and well!
