DESCRIPTION

Unmistakable French style... The DS was designed by an Italian and became instantly recognisable for its aerodynamic and futuristic shape and innovative technology, including a hydropneumatic self-levelling suspension. It was introduced by the French company in 1955 and produced in various derivatives over the next 20 years, probably reaching its zenith with the DS 23 Pallas which, with the larger 2.3-litre petrol engine and luxurious interior, has long been the benchmark of French luxury cars. This splendid left-hand drive, 1973 example was imported in 2008 and is showing some 14,500 kilometres, suggesting that it's been ""round the clock"". Presented to auction with a fresh MOT and a Swansea V5C.
