This is a very nice and original 1972 Citroen SM, It is Left hand Drive and finished in White with Black Leather interior. It is UK registered and has only covered 86000 Miles from new! It is a superb example of the coolest car on the planet, bar none! Masterminded by the head of Citroen's internal 'Bureau des Etudes', Robert Opron, the SM was unveiled at the 1970 Geneva Salon. Intended as a grand tourer to follow in the wheeltracks of offerings from Facel Vega, Delahaye and Bugatti, the newcomer married the world's most technologically advanced front-wheel-drive platform to Maserati quad-cam power (the Italian marque having been a Citroen subsidiary since 1968). Credited with developing some 170bhp and 172lbft, its free-revving 2.7-litre V6 engine (later 3.0-litre) was mounted behind the front wheels and allied to either a five-speed manual or three-speed automatic transmission. Boasting a substantial monocoque and drag co-efficient of just 0.25, the four-seater featured all-round independent, self-levelling oleo-pneumatic suspension, speed-sensitive power steering (2.0 turns lock to lock) and sensitive disc brakes. The SM was sure-footed, while its slippery shape gave it the performance to enforce those spaceship looks: Motor magazine found it capable of 137mph and 0-60mph in 8.3 seconds; a rival to such overtly sporting machinery as the Jensen Interceptor and BMW 3.0CSi. Of the 12,920 SMs built, only 327 were officially imported into the UK. All are left-hand drive apart from a handful converted to RHD in Australia. This left-hand drive SM EFI was manufactured in 1972, Finished in White with Black leather trim and Grey carpets, it is equipped with a five-speed manual gearbox. The previous owner has owned this car for decades and has always looked after its maintenance. The car drives exactly as it should and is ready for immediate use showing a mere 86,000 miles today. The car has a long MOT and tax it is ready to drive away. The bodywork is very nice with only very minor cosmetic blemishes on the paint and chromework. It is as original as you will find a car in the market today. It also has a full length Webasto sunroof. These space age machines drive great, are supremely comfortable on long journeys and have four proper seats with seat belts fitted. This is a great example in almost single ownership. This is priced to sell, it is in the perfect colour scheme and is currently in daily use by me!
