I sprnt the 3 days of the show between the SIMCA and MATRA stands which were neighbours in Hall 5. I was doing my bit for both clubs..as mag editor, press officer, etc etc for the SIMCA Club and helping man the MATRA stand where brother kev's Bagheera was part of the 'Bagheera Fest' there following the publicity for them on Top Gear...Two series 1 models and a supercharged series 2.
SIMCA stand featured what is belived to be the earliest surviving Chrysler Alpine, a later Talbot badged model and a rare twin cab SIMCA 1204 Special, Seen by some as the first Hot hatchback.
