L'Opération M35

History

Here's a fragment of a short film about the coöperation between Citroën and NSU, the 16 minute film can be seen through the link below this article.

The fragment shows a scene which I haven't been able to find before; the testing of M35-technique under an Ami 6 Berline. They're driving on the circuit of Monthléry, near Parijs, probably somewhere in 1968. Will this testbed still exist?

Stadionplein in Amsterdam

The early seventies.

I think that I was the first one in Holland who drove a Citroën M35. Those days I worked weekend service shifts for Citroën Amsterdam. For this job I had an HY Service Van available.
On a Sunday morning I was called by a signal of the pager system which was normally in use those days. At the Hotel Europe, in the middle of the town, close to the Munt Tower there was a Citroën which didn’t start.

When I arrived on the scene I was astonished that it concerns a Citroën M35 with on a towing hook, a trailer with two sailing boats type 420.
