Description

What makes this vehicle special is its well-known and verifiable history. The DS has been in the family’s possession for over 5 decades. It was officially deregistered on 11.07.1985 and has been continuously protected and stored in a dry environment ever since.

The odometer shows 63,165 km. The mileage can be verified based on the known vehicle history and surviving contemporary documents. Among other things, the original Texaco oil change tag is still attached to the vehicle, documenting a mileage of around 62,000 km immediately before it was deregistered.

Today, the DS presents itself in a very authentic overall condition, preserved over decades. The combination of the turquoise/green metallic bodywork with the red velour interior is particularly appealing.

The extensive equipment and vehicle inventory include, among other things:

·         red velour seat upholstery

  • matching centre armrest
  • extensive stainless-steel and chrome trim

·         large wheel covers

  • original or period-correct trim and add-on parts

  • spare wheel

  • on-board toolkit and jack

  • further original and replacement parts belonging to the vehicle

  • historical vehicle documents and deregistration papers

The numerous equipment details correspond to the Pallas trim.

The vehicle was deliberately not cosmetically prepared for sale. The paintwork, interior, engine compartment and underbody therefore honestly and clearly reflect their condition, which has developed over decades. The existing patina is part of the history of this exceptional vehicle.

The body is complete, the interior is intact and all components are also present in the engine compartment. There are minor age-related traces of corrosion on the underbody and on individual body areas. The DS was still driven under its own power during a move 20 years ago.

Due to the long period of storage, an unprepared starting attempt was deliberately avoided. The vehicle is therefore currently not roadworthy and is being sold in its present condition.
