Citroen ID
At the end of 1956, the Citroën ID (idée) was presented to the public. In appearance, this car was roughly the same as the DS, but it was a 'stripped down' variant for price-technical reasons with simpler technology, less engine power and a more sober design. The car was aimed at a less wealthy and more conservative audience. The ID returned to a clutch pedal and a normal gear lever, allowing for a significantly simplified hydraulic system and the advanced hydraulically-assisted brakes were operated by a 'normal' brake pedal. The futuristic nylon dashboard was replaced by a more commonplace (steel) design for the time. The cheapest version, specifically for the French domestic market, the ID 'Normale' did not even have power steering, a loss that had to be compensated for by an extra large steering wheel. The export models and the later, increasingly luxurious versions of the ID (from 1970: D Spécial; D Super and D Super 5) did have power steering and other features of the DS, but - except in the station wagons, the 'break' - no 'brake mushroom' and the hydraulic semi-automatic provision for coupling and shifting remained reserved for the DS.
This Citroen D-super has a beautiful metallic blue color with a red interior. This combination looks great on the car. Otherwise this is a beautifully restored Citroen and under the hood you see a clean and dry engine that runs very well. The brakes, steering and gearbox shift as it should. All in all a fantastic D-super!
