The Appeal

Here we have the ultimate version of the Citroën DS - the DS23 Pallas Injection Electronique. This offered the highest trim spec, the largest fuel-injected engine and a five-speed manual gearbox, making these later examples a real treat for enthusiasts of the marque.

The car's Ivory exterior and Havana interior create a classic and elegant colour combination, and it has recently been refinished to a high standard. We're informed that its complex hydropneumatic systems are in good working order and that the car drives very well indeed.
