Download or read book Citroen DS written by Geoffrey Webber and published by . This book was released on 2019-07-15 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Citroën DS was selected by motoring experts and the public as the most beautiful classic car of the twentieth century. French designer Flaminio Bertoni's 'Goddess' is considered a work of art, a sculpture on wheels. Some even called it the Sydney Opera House of motoring. Released in October 1955 in Paris, France, the first DS19 to arrive in Australia stunned onlookers at the Sydney Royal Easter Show in 1956. Its most notable innovation was the suspension, allowing the car to go 'up and down'. But there were many more outstanding features that made it such a seductive car. Many DS models came to this country from 1956 to 1975. As Citroën celebrates a hundred years since its launch, it is fitting to record the untold stories of the importers, distributors, owners, mechanics, racing drivers, restorers, artists and many more behind the story of the DS in Australia. With over 750 photographs, 120 original illustrations and exhaustive research, the authors have given voice to a definitive history of the Citroën DS in this country, capturing the essence of this stunning design and engineering marvel.
