This DS 23 with electronic fuel injection is exceptional for its condition. In 2015, it had a restoration carried out by the world's leading Citroen specialist, (particularly in DS models) n Vincent Crescia, based near Neufchâtel, Switzerland. Known for his meticulousness and attention to detail, he completely dismantled the bodywork and engine; he then fully restored them before reassembling them, as evidenced by his invoice dated April 2015. Totalling 160,665 Swiss francs, it provides details of the work carried out and we encourage keen buyers to take a look, as the list is impressive and no stone was left unturned. In its original glazed brown colour and with its original engine, this car is now in almost-new condition.
Delivered new in Italy and then imported to Switzerland in 2011, it has only known two owners. Fitted with a five-speed manual gearbox and air conditioning, it features stunning biscuit-coloured leather seats. This is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful DS 23ie Pallas models in existence, combining the driving qualities and unrivalled comfort of this high-end Citroen with an impeccable condition that is sure to impress enthusiasts of this fascinating model.
