Ta, was just using google image look up. My fave is probably Prisoners of the Sun or maybe the shooting star.

Google lens finds similar on another Simca ? 🤷🏼‍♂️

I think we'll have that feeling for many cars very soon. The controversial exterior and interior design now makes it age much slower, who would have thought!

PotS is the second half of the Calculus Affair story.  It's good, but there aren't many vehicles in it (unless you count llamas) - Hergé was fantastic at drawing vehicles.

Too late too late will be the cry, when the man with the bargains has passed you by. 

Under offer. And what a lovely thing.
