AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This Citroën DS23 Pallas Automatic Borg Warner was built in January 1973 at the Citroën factory ‘Quai de Javel’ in Paris. The car was originally delivered in the Netherlands in 1973 and has been with one family since then.
Exterior:
The Pallas version adds an extra dimension of luxury and style, with high-quality materials and comfort features that make the DS 21 unique in its kind. From the soft, spacious interior to the refined details typical of this Pallas version: everything exudes the atmosphere of craftsmanship and French class.
Over the years the family has not only technically revised the car but also restored it. The sheet metal is beautifully thin and the gaps are correct. The car has been completely repainted in the color AC421 ‘Rouge Bordeaux’ and still looks very good. The bodywork is equipped with a new paint layer both on the inside and outside. Subsequently the DS was rebuilt with new window and door rubbers. The sliding roof is not functioning.
The underside of the Citroën is in good condition. The supporting structure has been worked on in the past.
The trim parts are made of stainless steel and chrome. The condition of the trim parts can be described as good. Over the years the car has inherited only minimal signs of use.
Engine:
Originally only 69,040 KM with National Autopas Certificate
The engine is a 2.3-liter carburetted four-cylinder inline engine delivering 110 hp and in this case connected to the rare fully automatic transmission originating from Borg-Warner. Also equipped with a Weber carburetor. Also fitted with an LPG installation. The suspension system was completely revised during restoration, with several parts newly installed.
Interior:
The interior is completely original. The leather upholstery is black in color. The whole is in good condition. The authentic upholstery is free of serious damage and does show the necessary patina. The seats, rear bench and door panels are in original condition and the beautiful, fine leather smells wonderful. The carpets are still original and it still has the original headlining. The seat belts are still original. The instruments and control elements all look neatly maintained and are also fully original. The interior of the DS thus has a beautiful look.
Furthermore the DS is equipped with the following options:
Rear window heater, automatic transmission, leather upholstery, Jaeger instruments, rear center armrest, front center armrest, power-assisted brakes, power steering, hydro-pneumatic suspension with level control, hubcaps, Jaeger clock, sun visors, bumper emblems, left and right exterior mirrors, manually operated sunroof (not functioning) and a tow bar
The vehicle is of original Dutch origin. The Citroën has been owned by the same family for the second time. The DS was appraised in 2017, appraisal report available. Partial maintenance history available. The DS is equipped with complete Dutch registration.
The Citroën has always been stored warm and dry.
The car is equipped with Dutch registration and registration certificate.
To get a good impression of the DS, please schedule a viewing appointment before placing a bid.
For those looking for a DS, a beautiful opportunity.
Worldwide transport possible at a favorable rate.
