After the war, France's Grandes Routières went downhill. When the Salmson 2300 S appeared at the end of 1953, the company was living more on credit than on its cars. The new sports car was pretty, fast, reliable and had a DOHC engine that would also have suited an Alfa Romeo. But even it couldn't prevent the end. We tell the story of the last Salmson and show it in a wealth of historical footage and in the rare sales brochure.
