Matra was a specialist car maker who collaborated with Simca to create the Bagheera, a mid-engined sports car with unique three-abreast seating. The Bagheera was powered by Simca 4-cylinder engines, but Matra’s engineers wanted more power. The Bagheera U8 was created by joining two 1.3-litre Simca engines side by side at an 82º angle, sharing a common sump. Alas, the 1973 energy crisis, combined with engineering issues, meant the U8 didn’t progress beyond the prototype stage.
