Thanks Robert! I din't remember the pop-ups of the Sonett. The bonnet bulge seems somewhat optimistic to hyde a single Ford V4. Do you remember the Matra 530?

Believe it is a Sturtevant V8 Aero engine in it. Regularly seen at VSCC meetings here.

The cars in the articles above are standard cars, the Pic-Pic has a 9.0 Sturtevant engine, & the Luxior has an 8.2 Curtis engine. Both are VSCC specials and are regularly seen at their events.

Yes, "specials".

A Djet, EB, yes of course. (The Matra version was the first really fast car used by our Gendarmerie.)

Not only the Devil wears Prada but he drives a Marcos cabriolet! I could not imagine the Renault Spider in RHD tho. If my memory serves, the concept shown at Geneva MS was called Laguna (vertically displayed). Well done "VESIX", thanks.
