Silhouette (55 Made 1976-79)

The targa-topped Silhouette was first introduced to the public at the 1976 Geneva Motor Show. It was a further development of the Urraco model. The 2+2 seating was reduced to only 2 seats with a small small shelf behind the seats that would accomodate the removable targa top.
