Its a Big 6H, well we believe it might be the only RHD hydraulic left in the UK and that only a handful remain world wide. There are a few more LHD hydraulics but very very few RHD as only 74 were ever made, not many exist now. It is a Slough built car, which has a nice history too it as a road research car. It was never a saloon car until my dad bought it, previously it had always been a working car and was in a very bad state when he first got it.
Its running on LHM. It does ride very softly indeed, though its handbrake is a bit of a quirk, as it works on the rear and there being so much suspension movement that you have to be careful with it. Park to close to something and as it settles it will be touching whatever you parked near, or be further away if reversed in. Also when doing hill starts the back end sinks right down onto the stops as you pull away. Hence why Citroen moved it to the front.
Im yet to drive it on the road, so im looking forward to that when its going again, its quite a car i must admit. Ive driven it around feilds at CCC events but not on the roads. Apart from having to double de clutch from 2nd to 1st its very much like driving a modern car.
Its stunning to see how unlike a old car it is, its very quiet on the road, will sit at 70 all day long, the steering is so very accurate. There is no need for the minor adjustments often required in modern cars to keep it in a straight line, its straight and true. Though that does make the steering very heavy, sometimes it takes two of use just to turn the wheel when parking! Its tyre pressures should be somehting like 22 psi front and 19psi rear, though we have them set to around 35 and 30 just to give a bit more ease on the steering.
It has long torsion bars on the front of the 6H to compliment the rear suspension, so it ride well all round. It certainly gets some looks especially with its suspension, as people dont expect it on such an old car.
Ill have to get some better pictues up once its on the road again, hopefully we will have it at some CCC events next year, so you might see it Jim, im sure a ride out wouldnt be out of the question either

Before its bearing went me and my dad used to go on local classic car runs around the yorkshire moor areas etc. I would drive our old Renault 4 whilst trying to keep up with the traction. It really took some doing, the 4 was not really one for corners, i was asured it would not fall over, though often it did seem like it would, i would just cling to the steering wheel with a huge grin on my face

We have three gearboxes for it, our one and two gearboxes borrowed from another traction owner so we have been trying those out previously as ours had problems with selecting gears and reversing on anything other than flat ground.
So we have had the gearbox back to the specialists and hopefully this time it will be fine, though its just a trial and error thing. We will be putting our gearbox and clutch back in, so hopefully the gearbox is ok now.
