Note the engine off to one side and the radiator position, similar to the URQ and S2/RS2 cars

Hmmm, looks in nicer condition than mine.  I'm eyeing it...

They've pretty cool engineering for the early 70's - inboard vented discs, FWD of course hence the forward engine and slanted. Radiator fan is belt driven from engine.  Rear beam design carried through to many Audi/VW since.
They're a deceptively big car being based on the 100 rather than the 80 like the Coupe GT. Real cruisy & comfortable but brisk as a manual and great handling for their time.

"Dads" repair doesnt look that good on the rear. Lines and gaps arent to flash. Cool car though.

- inboard vented discs,

Cool until you have to change the pads. Same grief as a GTV6 Alfa I suspect

inboard disk pads on the Citroen GS were a doddle to change! take out the split pin, lift out with the wear indicator wire, drop in, couldn't be simpler
