Description
The Citroën DS is widely regarded as one of the most influential automobiles of the 20th century. With its revolutionary engineering, unmistakable design, and outstanding ride comfort, it set new standards upon its introduction and remains a true icon among collectors and enthusiasts of classic French automobiles.
The example offered here was imported from France to Essen, Germany, in 2011 and has been in the hands of its current owner since 2012.
Following its import, the DS underwent a comprehensive restoration during 2011 and 2012. The work included a complete repaint, a new leather interior, new carpets, and the refurbishment of numerous mechanical components. As a result, the car presents itself today in a very well-maintained condition, both cosmetically and mechanically.
Throughout his ownership, the current owner entrusted all maintenance, servicing, and repair work exclusively to renowned Citroën DS specialists. In addition, he has kept a detailed chronological record documenting every service and repair carried out on the vehicle.
A particular highlight is the extensive history file accompanying the car. All workshop invoices and German TÜV inspection reports have been retained since its import to Germany. Furthermore, the vehicle comes with an original French registration document dating back to the early 1990s, adding to its well-documented and traceable history.
This Citroën DS 21 stands out for its long-term ownership, meticulous care, and exceptional documentation. A highly authentic and thoroughly documented example, representing an excellent opportunity for collectors and enthusiasts seeking one of the most iconic French classics ever built.
