  • Registered with the Automotoclub Storico Italiano (ASI)
  • Original number plate

The Appeal

Probably one of the most beautiful cars ever built, the DS was a car conceived with great audacity and innovative spirit. Featuring futuristic styling and suspension that looked worthy of a science fiction tale, the DS was revolutionary when it was introduced to the market and continues to amaze to this day.
This particular example has lived a quiet existence, having had only two owners since new. It has been a long-term hobby project for the current owner and reportedly drives very well, having received its last extensive maintenance a few months ago and exhibiting the unmistakable DS character beautifully.
Supplied with a new MOT, which will be carried out at the time of sale, this is a solid and charming car that is ready for its next owner.
