1973 Citroën DS23 | Edinburgh, Midlothian

A 1973 Citroën DS23, the last and most powerful development of the DS. The model is known for its low, streamlined saloon body and hydropneumatic suspension, which levels the car and gives a soft, floating ride. Under the bonnet is a 2.3-litre petrol engine. This car is finished in Brown with a Brown interior, a warm, earthy pairing that looks at home against stone, brick or woodland. The tapering profile and fibreglass roof of the DS23 give a clean, uncluttered silhouette. Photography and fashion and editorial shoots get a long, smooth shape with plenty of detail to frame. Film and TV productions set in the 1970s can use its period lines, and advertising gains a car with a distinctly French character. Weddings and personal hires suit its relaxed ride and unusual looks. The car is based in Edinburgh, Midlothian.
