The seller offers for sale this Citroën DS21 Pallas from 1972, equipped with a 2.2-litre 4-cylinder petrol engine and manual 5-speed gearbox. This elegant sedan was restored over ten years ago by a well-known expert in DS restoration, who initially rebuilt the car for his personal use. The current owner acquired it five years ago and has since kept it in good condition. The paint, refreshed during the restoration, remains close to perfect with only a few nearly invisible marks. The original black leather interior with air conditioning retains its authentic texture and charm, requiring no additional work. The engine starts without hesitation, produces no smoke or unusual noise, and the gearbox shifts smoothly and quietly. The vehicle shows no visible rust, accident history, or damage.
The Citroën DS21 Pallas represents one of the most sophisticated sedans of the 1970s. Known for its futuristic design and advanced hydropneumatic suspension, it offered unmatched comfort and handling. The Pallas trim added luxury features and refinement, distinguishing it as a symbol of innovation and French elegance. Its sleek aerodynamic profile, smooth ride and distinctive styling continue to make the DS a favourite among collectors and enthusiasts who value originality and engineering ingenuity.
