My favourite car, along with the Tatra 603. I wish I had the money to buy one...

I have got a very good hint for you to keeping the nice old Sports Engine in good shape with todays ultra dry eco fuels: Use 1:100 API TC two stroke oil / fuel mix as regular driving fuel, that keeps the old fuel-system gaskets, rubber parts, alloy parts etc... and cast iron metal surfaces of those vintage engines in excellent shape...and it also lubricates the valves and upper piston regions. Most Mercedes vintage owners in Germany do so :) Also keeps carbs and EFi injectors clean as new!

you are right! most ferrari vintage guys in germany and italy do so.

I miss the old citroen sooo much!!! they used to make different original cars....nowdays they are just more of the same......

Dont forget to put 1:100 two stroke Oil API TC into the tank for each fill, because thats good for the carbs and the pistons..modern fuel does not take care of the old engine materials!

Hi. Did you ever get your SM? LG.

that's much more likely a symptom of video/sound sync than actual tach lag.

Beautiful sounding engine, but I could never get used to that HUGE lag in the tachometer! It's done revving by the time the needle's reacted.
My all-time favourite car; one which I will own next year

Lucky bugger, SM's are beautiful cars! Perhaps you could do some driving videos too? I would love to hear that V6 working hard, a glorious tone.
