The '''Matra MS120''' was the fifthsixth and final [[Formula One car]] produced by [[Equipe Matra Sports|Matra]] (following the [[Matra MS9|MS9]], [[Matra MS10|MS10]], [[Matra MS11|MS11]], [[Matra MS80|MS80]] and [[Matra MS80|MS84]]). The MS120 was later developed to become the '''Matra MS120B''', '''Matra MS120C''' and '''Matra MS120D'''. The car was built at Matra's [[Formula One]] base at [[Vélizy-Villacoublay]] in the southwestern suburbs of [[Paris]], designed under the direction of [[Gérard Ducarouge]] and [[Bernard Boyer]].
 
==Development==
For 1970 following the agreement with [[Simca]], Matra asked [[Tyrrell Racing|Tyrrell]] to use their [[V12 engine|V12]] [[Formula One French engine manufacturers|engine]] rather than the Cosworth. [[Jackie Stewart]] got to test the Matra V12, but since a large part of the Tyrrell budget was provided by [[Ford Motor Company|Ford]], and another significant sponsor was French state-owned petroleum company [[Elf Aquitaine|Elf]], which had an agreement with [[Renault]] that precluded supporting a Simca partner, the partnership between Matra and [[Tyrrell Racing|Tyrrell]] ended.
