Back in the days cars had character and individuality, even an idiot could tell them apart, today they may be more efficient, comfortable and reliable but man do they lack personality..they all look alike
Used to drive a 75 CX2000, felt like a F1 around corners it just refused to let go. Could out corner and out break most modern cars. Acceleration was poor for its 1300kg weight.
No comparison between Lancia OHC light alloy boxer and 1.9 older Citroen DS engine: cast iron ,arms & rockers..or 2.0 PRV - no match between fine Gamma body and squared & featureless Renault 20..
Some great 70s cars on that film - brought back a lot of memories! And what a superb chase scene that was - some real hair-raising stunts there, really well choreographed.
Damn traffic looked interesting in 1980! a Citroen CX vs a Lancia Gamma Berlina is quite an apt comparison - both were booted sedans with fastback styling (look like they should have been hatches, but weren't), had large four cylinder engines and were good handling...

I believe both Lancia Gamma and Citroen CX were hugely underrated automobiles. Great video overall.

Poor Lancia Gamma - I hope he did that J turn after the engine had warmed up otherwise he would have snapped the cam belt.
dnalor1975 3 years ago
Correct. Lancia Gamma suffered that problem a lot!! Nice idea to connect power steering to the same belt of the cams...
