Another ‘80’s ikon! Competitor to the 308’s. It doesn’t get the press the Ferrari does but it is less expensive , less maintenance intensive, better built, and cheaper to run. The later ones came without the Citroen hydraulics and are a real pleasure. Not quite as fast, (more of a Gt) as the Ferrari in spec, but will keep pace on the street and in rallys.
I always liked the Merak. Many years ago a red, Citroen-era one was for sale at a local dealer. One day I saw that it had been completely smashed. I asked the dealer what happened and he said a tractor trailer had accidentally backed into it. What a tragedy.
OUCH! they are so low that he probably didn't even see it. My ground clearance is only about 4.5 inches. It probably has a fair amount of valuable parts that are salvageable. Some of the parts bring a good price. Can you get the tool kit for me? (they came with a toll roll with a dozen or so simple tools).
