My friend driving a Simca 1000

How come everybodys on the wrong side of the road??????????

The steering wheel is on the right.... this is in Scotland.

That was my attempt at humor. Thanks for letting me know where it was filmed. I own a 66 Simca 1000 here in the States. 26,000 original miles, and still driving it on the original tires. Must replace soon.

Great stuff.... good to know Chrysler Europe made quite an impact on American motoring in its day.

[dietzdrummer]

Didn't really make any kind of impact. I believe only 26,000 units sold. I have one of maybe 13 that still run in all of U.S. Real attention getter when I take it out. People can't believe the Chrylser logo on fender.

Well it wasn't just Simca, but things like the Talbot/Simca Horizon which finished here in 1986 carried on as the Dodge Omni right through until 1990. Plymouth Cricket, another Talbot car, and I think a few others over time!

I used to own a 1962 Simca in Cyprus. Charming car
