The Simca 1100 was comissioned by the HQ in 1969.
This appealing mid-sized hatchback sedan/saloonwas wholly appreciated for its strengh and its creditable performences. It took over from the Renault R8.
Despite its quintessentially Simca clanking and resounding engine which called for regular adjustments, the SIMCA's (Société Industrielle et Mécanique de Constructions Automobiles)
(Automotive Industrial & Mechanic Manufacturing Company)
emerged as a essential part of the HQ's light vehicles fleet until the Eighties.
HQ commissioned other Simca models including the 1500 and 1501 Station Wagon/Estate. The latters' Simcamatic gearboxes performed better than their ZF counterparts fitted on the
Peugeot 404 estate/Station Wagon
