Though not represented at all, the photo shown is an original example of the Matra Djet interior still in immaculate condition and for the ages it is awesome. The dash looks simple, does not have many instruments in it, and even the storage no has a cover, no radio, and no clock for me it still looks fun, just you and the machine.
Here's where the power comes from, as shown here is the correct machine for the Djet 5S model, an 1108 cc Renault Inline-four engine that was tuned by Gordini backed by 4-speed manual transmission, is said capable to produce about 90-95 hp and 190 km/h (118 mph) for top speed.
