Hot stove for car fans - Simca 1200 S Coupé

April 23, 2013 — Heinz Kranz 28

In 1967, Simca launched the revised Simca 1200 S Coupé on the market, which promised more sportiness with a more powerful engine and a more aggressive exterior than its more well-behaved predecessor, the Simca 1000 Coupé. Heinz Kranz from the magazine 'hobby', an opponent of powerful rear-engined cars, was convinced on the Montlhéry circuit that the Simca people had done a great job. This article reproduces the original text of the test and shows the car in many historical illustrations as well as in the sales brochure of the time.

Simca 1200 S - elegance, camber and sportiness

December 19, 2021 — Bruno von Rotz 87

Is 40 hp enough for a sports car? Rather no. The people in charge at Simca realized this around 55 years ago and doubled the power of the coupé based on the Simca 1000, which was fitted by Bertone, in one fell swoop. There was no longer a lack of power, especially as the coupé remained affordable with a four-digit purchase price. This vehicle report tells the story of the elegant Simca Coupé and shows the two generations in historical and current images as well as in the sales literature.
