Summary

The Simca 1100 has been built since 1968, the model generation in this test since August 1974. The focus is on the LX, a pop-decorated luxury variant of the cheapest two-door LS, which was intended to revive interest in the entire model series. This test report from back then describes what the fashionable special model had to offer compared to other variants of the 1100 model series.

Preview (beginning of the article)

The Simca 1100 has been built since 1968, the current model generation since August 1974. Prices were increased again from April 1, 1975, ranging from DM 8298 to DM 10,898 (excluding freight). Anyone who is familiar with the LS, LX, GLS, ES, Special and TI equipment and the four engine versions knows more than many a salesperson. This proliferation of models makes it difficult to choose, but Chrysler-Simca makes a tactic out of necessity and puts as much as possible on the dealers' shelves to encourage buyers. The last howler in this firework display is the LX, a colorful spot in the model range.
