Citroën - DS 23 Pallas Automatique Borg Warner - 1973

This Citroën DS23 Pallas Automatic Borg-Warner was built in January 1973 at the Citroën factory 'Quai de Javel' in Paris. The car was originally delivered in the Netherlands in 1973 and has been with one family ever since. Exterior: The Pallas version adds an extra dimension of luxury and style, with high-quality materials and comfort features that make the DS 21 stand out in its class. From the soft, spacious interior to the refined details that are typical for this Pallas edition: everything exudes the atmosphere of craftsmanship and French class. Over the years the family has not only mechanically refreshed the car but also restored it. The bodywork is beautifully thin and the gaps are correct. The car has been repainted in the color AC421 ‘Rouge Bordeaux’ and still looks very good. The body panels feature new paint on both interior and exterior. The DS has subsequently been rebuilt with new window and door seals. The sunroof is not functional. The underside of the Citroën is in good condition. The load-bearing section has been refurbished in the past. The trim pieces are made of stainless steel and chrome. The condition of the trim can be described as good. The car has accumulated minimal signs of use over the years.

Also equipped with a Weber carburetor. In addition, it features an LPG installation. The suspension system was completely overhauled during restoration, with several parts newly installed. Interior: The interior is completely original. The leather upholstery is black. The whole is in good condition. The authentic leather upholstery is free from serious damage and does show the necessary patina. The seats, rear bench, and door panels are in original condition, and the beautiful, fine leather smells wonderful. The carpets are still original and still equipped with the original headlining.
