Maserati Simun - 1968 Precursor of the Indy

Looks very like the Iso Lele

Which in turn has a lot of the Espada - not surprising since the Lele and the Espada were both designed by Gandini (Bertone). The Simun is by Giugiaro (Ghia). For me the Espada looks the best closely followed by the Simun. The Simun was probably just a bit ahead of its time and too angular for the late sixties and it never made it to production.

In the early 1980s my father congratulated one of his colleagues who had just taken delivery of his Renault Fuego company car. Said colleague didn't take the compliment well as the 'Fuego' was actually a Porsche 924....


*corrected. Early 80s, not late 70s

Not sure which was worse. The 924 or the Fuego? I guess it depends if the Fuego was a turbo or not!

Front wheel drive versus rear wheel drive.

French versus German, always seems to be one result when these come head to head
