About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Two small dings in the front bumper and two tiny chips on the left front fender. Another small scratch on the tail. Paint drip on the left edge of the hood. Imperfect panel fit, most noticeably on the hood and hatch. Good interior with lightly worn seats and slightly warped dash vinyl. Advertised as a 2014 cosmetic restoration, but it doesn't present as a fresh car. An overall pretty and attention-grabbing example of one of Citroen's most memorable big cars, but it reveals shortcomings on close inspection.

Market commentary

One of the most interesting designs ever to come out of France and powered by a Maserati V-6, the SM was the fastest front-drive car in the world when it came out and has since developed a following. These cars are neither rare nor particularly valuable, however, so this result is huge.
