This iconic French car represents both the culmination and the end of this legendary model’s production run. It has everything needed for a peaceful drive in saloon-like comfort, with refined lines and design – in short, a goddess. The name ‘Pallas’ is derived from Athena, the goddess of mythology and a symbol of wisdom and strength (sic). Since 1955, the DS has been revolutionary in terms of its features and styling; in 1964, the Pallas version was launched to win over the most discerning customers, whilst the 1985cc engine is the culmination of this engine range, which was less powerful than the 21 and 23 models.
This model is the easiest to maintain: no electronic fuel injection and not too many accessories, despite those supplied at the time. It also features a hydraulic gearbox, ensuring a comfortable drive. It is in its ‘beetle brown’ livery, code AC.427 LE, with its original brown fabric interior.
Condition:
The version shown here is in good condition; the bodywork shows no major dents, though there is a slight tear at the junction of the doors on the right-hand side. The car is complete; only two items are missing for purists: the handbrake pedal surround and the wing mirrors, which are not the original ones. A full service will be required to drive this fine car, which, it should be noted, is one of the two most reliable models in the range: the DS 20 and the DSuper 5.
