From the Back Cover:

The Citro�n DS is one of the all-time great cars. Daringly styled and technically sophisticated, it was launched in 1955 as a startling glimpse into the future. It instantly rendered all other cars out of date. It was still ahead of its time when production ended 20 years later, and much of its engineering legacy—notably the brilliant hydro-pneumatic suspension—can still be seen on modern Citro�ns.

Original Citro�n DS reveals, in thorough text and over 200 color photographs, how these Citro�ns altered in detail over the years. Specification descriptions, engine and trim permutations, production changes, identification number sequences, body colors, and more are all covered in detail.

An attractive and detailed guide to one of the great 20th century design icons, Original Citro�n DS is an indispensable reference for all owners, collectors, restorers, and enthusiasts of these amazing automobiles.
