::::Thank you Ian and thank you Typ 932. Eminently clear for someone who has time to read the entire entry, patience to follow through all the links etc. For those of us more inclined to skim the text and stop at the pictures, and of diminished memory .... well, I just put in a link from under the picture. I hope you don't think that's over the top. I do come back to this article from time to time and reckon I know it reasonably well. And of course the explanation that weird looking balls are something to do with the suspension is no surprise to anyone who's followed the Citroen story over the years. But I don't think, without this link via the image caption, it's self evident. Regards [[User:Charles01|Charles01]] ([[User talk:Charles01|talk]]) 10:22, 10 May 2008 (UTC) |

Steering
Seems like some of the detail about how the SM's steering works belong on the DIRAVI page. Any disagreement? 66.77.124.61 22:06, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
No, I agree. There should be a short summary on this page and maybe a link to the DIRAVI page from here. Chevymontecarlo (talk) 16:43, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
What the "s" stands for
I believe that the "S" stood for "SERIE" hence "Serie Masarati" —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.142.215.184 (talk) 08:18, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
That's extremely useful to the article, but we need citations to prove it. Chevymontecarlo (talk) 16:47, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
Green Balls in the engine bay
Does anyone know the significance of these green balls in the engine bay picture? If you do, how about four or five words of explanation in the caption under the picture? Please? Thanks and regards Charles01 (talk) 08:33, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
