Monica's Unique Story

Monica was born in 1971 from the bold vision of Jean Tastevin, a French industrialist with a passion for automobiles who dreamed of creating a prestigious French brand capable of rivaling the greatest European manufacturers. Based in Balbigny in the Loire region, this ambitious company aimed to produce entirely French luxury automobiles.

The Monica 560 V8, the brand's flagship model, was powered by a Chrysler V8 engine and offered remarkably refined finishes. The design, entrusted to Tony Rascanu, former stylist for Chrysler France, gave birth to a silhouette that was both modern and timeless, characterized by taut lines and a distinctly French elegance.

Unfortunately, this promising industrial adventure was interrupted by the 1973 oil crisis , which dealt a fatal blow to manufacturers of fuel-guzzling luxury cars. Only 35 examples of the Monica would roll off the production line, making this car one of the rarest in French automotive history.

A Brand That Still Fascinates Today

Monica's story fascinates with its tragic side and utopian dimension. This brand represents French audacity in the luxury automobile industry, a courageous attempt to create a French alternative to the prestigious German and Italian brands that already dominated the high-end market.

The fact that only 35 cars were produced gives Monica a legendary status in the collector's world. Each surviving example is today considered a treasure of French automotive history, regularly presented at the most prestigious concours d'élégance.

This extreme rarity explains the collectors' enthusiasm for Model reproductions of Monicas, which allow them to own a piece of this very special French automotive history . Monica Models have thus become sought-after pieces, witnesses to a time when French industry still dared to challenge the European giants in the field of automotive luxury.
