The Appeal
Among the many DS models, the DS Super stands out. It combines the sober finish of the ID19 with the more powerful 2,175 cm³ engine. These highly practical qualities add to the appeal of what is already one of the most desirable saloons ever built.
This 1973 DS Super arrives on the market after a complete mechanical overhaul costing more than €5,000. This work included the a renovation of the radiator, carburettors, brake parts and fuel lines, as well as a complete overhaul. Unsurprisingly, it has a roadworthiness certificate valid until August 2029.
This vehicle is well maintained and original, in an elegant black colour with a robust vinyl interior. Perfect for long journeys, weekend getaways and classic car tours.
