Summary
From 1970 to 1986, Citroën built the GS/GSA model, a car that was different from all its competitors. With a new type of aerodynamic saloon body with a hatchback and air-cooled boxer engine at the front, Citroën demonstrated its courage for independence and individualism. The GS also proved to be a match for the competition and almost 2.5 million units were built. This driving report describes the history of this unusual model and shows the GS in many pictures and in the contemporary sales brochure.
