le camionneur ◊ 2005-04-30 13:26	c'est une id et non une ds
sixcyl ◊ 2006-04-21 22:02	Wagon, is that the name?
antp ◊ 2006-04-21 22:07	Zitat A station wagon version was introduced in 1958 - it was known by various names in different markets (Break in France, Safari and Familiale in the UK, Wagon in the US, while Citroen Australia used the term Safari and Station-Wagon). (source: Wikipedia) But I still do not know if they used the name "ID" or not
sixcyl ◊ 2006-04-21 22:11	I've learned something thank's Antoine
Jnelson09 ◊ 2006-09-13 18:35	That's a Saturn in the background.
DynaMike ◊ 2011-04-27 19:19	Since circa 1970 the ID Break in USA was called D-21 Station Wagon (but to keep things easy better to list it like the others: just Station Wagon). And this is a rather new one (1972+ door handles), so... The paint isn't original: wagons always had a light grey roof and rear hatch (except some UK-built Safaris), and the triangle in the rear lower corner should be black. The strip between bumper and rear wheel arch and the rear side marker are missing, and it looks like there's something wrong with the suspension (too high at the rear; or was that only temporarily?). -- Last edit: 2011-04-27 19:21:43
rjluna2 ◊ 2011-04-27 19:43	@DynaMike: Seems that the chassis/rear fender may be bent due to previous accident Also, probably resprayed
DynaMike ◊ 2011-04-27 20:07	It still looks much better than mine On this very day I got my very first DS! Mine is a 1972 DSpécial that has been 'rebuilt' in 1988 to a Pallas look-alike with a bigger engine and 5-speed gear box. But ever since it has had a hard life, so it is totally rotten on the exterior, but technically rather good, and it drives superb -- Last edit: 2011-04-27 20:10:33
chicomarx ◊ 2011-04-27 20:28	Congratulations. A little rust adds character to the car... Dutch car presumably? I suppose you'd have to import from France to find a rust-free example that's not overpriced.
DynaMike ◊ 2011-04-27 20:45	Thanks Chicomarx! Yes, this car is in Holland since 1988. Too long a time to be outside in rain and ice and salt... But what a pleasure to have one and to drive it! (more pictures of severe rust on facebook )
stronghold ◊ 2011-04-27 20:49	Nice car and a smooth drive ....good luck with it (ps- had you seen the one my Dad owned ..on my profile page?)
DynaMike ◊ 2011-04-27 20:55	Thanks, Stronghold! That's a nice and interesting one of your dad's black B- and C-pillar (was it available as standard in the UK like that, or was it what the French call an 'Administration' version?), and one regular DS hubcap and one Pallas hubcap That's the way I like them !
130rapid ◊ 2011-04-27 21:08	DynaMike wrote But ever since it has had a hard life, so it is totally rotten on the exterior, but technically rather good, and it drives superb : What about (DS's clue) chassis skeleton, floorpan and bulkhead especially?
DynaMike ◊ 2011-04-27 21:35	Luckily the structural parts have been protected and, when needed, been replaced
ingo ◊ 2011-04-27 22:31	Hopefully you'll have fun with it. Do you are planning to restore it?
Mudflap ◊ 2011-04-27 22:57	Congratulations DynaMike! Nice DS!
DynaMike ◊ 2011-04-27 23:18	No plans to restore it (it's decompostating too much...), but trying to keep it on the road as long as possible (and payable). A DS is one of the few cars (in my opinion) that keeps its grace and standing even when in a very bad state It'll need some minor technical repairs, and the exterior (and part of the upholstery) is just total crap, so much that one has to laugh about it
chicomarx ◊ 2011-04-28 00:14	Down the street from me there's also a DS nut with three DS in the driveway, in various states of decomposition, plus a couple XM's with French plates. Yours is still better than any of them.
DynaMike ◊ 2011-04-28 00:20	Wow!
atom ◊ 2011-04-28 00:26	I was looking at one some time ago, the guy that tried to sell it to me didn't think it was a problem that you could see the road through the rust holes in the floor and that the rear door opend when we hit a bump on the road but I was a bit sceptic. It was nice to drive though.

A bit minor work, but the substance is really good" and such bullshit? It reminds me to a K 70 for sale, my friend and me have looked for many years ago. Never before and after I've heard so often "Good substance!" in such a short time. When Mario and me were speechless standing there. It was a total wreck, helpless rotten until death. Large holes were rusted everywhere around, even in the roof, the whole technic was stuck (incl. lamp-switch and seat-rests), etc. At least only one single part was usable - the 1971' V2a-trim in the dashboard. But the whole time the seller babbled "Just a few hours working and it will be mint condition again. The substance is really good"... Finally we could pick it up for free. We haven't done it. -- Last edit: 2011-04-28 12:14:58
atom ◊ 2011-04-28 12:21	Not really, he knew the car was in bad condition and he had just used it in the summer as a go-to-the-beach-car and I would have too if I had bought it.
chicomarx ◊ 2011-04-28 13:42	atom wrote the guy that tried to sell it to me didn't think it was a problem that you could see the road through the rust holes in the floor Floormat = problem solved.
rjluna2 ◊ 2011-04-28 14:02	chicomarx wrote Floormat = problem solved. Oh, that reminds me that with my first 1972 SAAB 99 that were rust holes by the wheel wells. It was rusted bad enough for me to see the actual road when I removed the floormat. I had that car from 1983 until 1988 when the final drive gear gave away.
ingo ◊ 2011-04-28 16:51	chicomarx wrote Floormat = problem solved. Oh, the mentioned K 70-wreck had such a solution - an old licence plate. From Bremen with a TÜV-sticker of 1977, I remember that. I got it for free - fortunately without the car So chicomarx is one of the car-connoisseurs, who also are following the recipe, when an engine damage is coming up: turn the radio louder -- Last edit: 2011-04-28 16:51:36
DynaMike ◊ 2011-04-28 17:25	If water can come into the car, the floorpan can get rusty. But to be sure the water can leave the car, one just has to let the rust make some drain holes To my big surprise the floorpan of my DS is still in good shape...
chicomarx ◊ 2011-04-28 17:52	At the yearly inspection they can only fail the car for structural rust, they have to permit rust at the bottom of doors, wheel wells etc. - provided the sharp edges don't stick out too much.
Alarming_General ◊ 2021-04-12 22:51	oh my god! the car is lifted on its air suspension
johnfromstaffs ◊ 2021-04-13 09:15	Alarming_General wrote oh my god! the car is lifted on its air suspension Why is that such a marvellous thing? It was designed to do this if the driver wanted it to. This is not one of those ridiculous jumping cars.
I am me ◊ 2021-05-14 18:45	Alarming_General wrote oh my god! the car is lifted on its air suspension Nope, it has hydraulic suspension.
