When we described a visit to the Simca factory in the April issue we remarked that a Simca Aronde Elysee saloon would soon be attacking records at Montlhery. This attack has since successfully concluded. The Simca ran for 36 days, averaging 70.2 .m.p.h. for well over 62,000 miles, inclusive of all stops — the convincing sort of long-distance test! Subject to confirmation, 14 World’s and 27 International Class records were broken — most of them, we believe, belonged to Citroen, but were established many years ago.
