After a Renault 16, an another late 60's Sedan Wagon!!! "The 1100 was introduced to America in June, 1969 as the Simca 1204, reflecting its 1204cc engine. It was available in LS or GLS trim, hatchback, or wagon (estate) for under $2,000. Air conditioning and the three speed automatic gearbox were offered as options. Although the car was praised by the American motoring press, it was not a success and Simca withdraw from the American market in 1972"
