1971 Citroën DS 20 Pallas for Sale in the Netherlands

This 1971 Citroën DS 20 Pallas is a used car showing 25,270 km. It is equipped with a semi-automatic transmission. The car is finished in Beige Albatros with a Brown interior.

The history file is this car's strongest card: it opens with the original order form of May 1971, placed with a Citroën-Maserati dealer in Troyes, and the record appears continuous from then on. As a Pallas it has the top DS specification of the day, with extra sound insulation and richer trim, and it is painted in Beige Albatros, essentially white with a touch of black.

The dealer describes it as preserved and improved rather than restored. The paint shows off Flaminio Bertoni's lines, the brown velour interior is exceptionally well kept, and regular care by a specialist has left the hydropneumatic suspension and mechanics in excellent order, with the hydraulic semi-automatic gear change doing away with a clutch pedal.

The car is located in Brummen, Netherlands.

The Citroën DS 20 uses the 1,985 cc DY2 four-cylinder with a Weber twin-choke carburettor, rated at 103 hp SAE (90 PS DIN) at 5,500 rpm and 149 Nm at 3,400 rpm, with a four-speed manual or hydraulically shifted gearbox, driving the front wheels.
