i saw that the other day, it's certainly a RARE one, i'm surprised u don't have one in your collection Andrew... as for rotary engines... give me a 1989 mazda rx-7 turbo 2 anyday.

interesting to see the price.... nearly £2k so far!! i reckon it will got for £2500 in the end... if i had the money and the space i'd add it to my collection, and keep it as a show car

I agree that is nice. Was being discussed at BXClub - conclusion was it is one for an ethusiast with deep pockets. And very long arms :wink:

Still, had I the room to keep it......

i think the Decap buy it now is a bit on the optomistic side!! The seller is perhaps being a bit fly with the description....in big letters at the top "CITROEN DS 21 DECAPOTABLE CONVERTIBLE CHAPRON 1969 LHD"

But then...."Recreation of a DS 21 Decapotable by a very talented coachbuilder".....in other words, very possibly home built by a mate!! Nothing wrong with that if it's done properly but the word 'Chapron' does sort of leap out at you :wink:

I think 50k is very optomistic, its not THAT nice, and only if it were a chapron would it be worth that amount.
"Rust Never Sleeps" said Neil Young. Did he own old citroens?
