1971 Citroën DS 21 for Sale in the Netherlands

This 1971 Citroën DS 21 is a used car showing 30,969 km. It is equipped with an automatic transmission. The car is finished in Rouge Cornaline.

Unlike most DS saloons, which have the hydraulically shifted gearbox, this 21 has the fully automatic transmission, driven simply by selecting D. Its red Rouge Cornaline body is set off by a roof in Blanc Meije, a pairing that reflects the individual tastes of the dealer's clientele more than any standard specification.

The car was restored thoroughly at the end of the 1980s and the start of the 1990s, and specialists have looked after it since, with an extensive file to show for it. The listing is marked as expected: so far the dealer has published only a placeholder image and no photograph of the car itself.

The car is located in Brummen, Netherlands.

The Citroën DS 21 automatique uses the 2,175 cc DX2 four-cylinder, 90 by 85.5 mm, with a carburettor, rated at 115 hp SAE (104 PS DIN) at 5,750 rpm and 173 Nm at 3,000 rpm, with a top speed of 170 km/h in automatic form, with a fully automatic three-speed Borg-Warner gearbox, an option on the 21 from the early 1970s, driving the front wheels.
