Marc's Citroen DS23 Safari

Post by marc61 » Sun Aug 31, 2014 6:25 pm

Just in case it's of interest I've decided to sell my D Safari, sometimes seen at car rallies with a boot full of XM spares. At least I think I've decided to sell it, bit of a difficult decision after all these years. Would like it to go to a proper Citroen enthusiast and I know there are a few here :D

Thanks Russ. It's a bit of a wrench to say the least. But sooner or later a decision needs to be made.

Don't think I'll ever put as much effort into a car as I did this one!

I think i remember seeing that one, no idea you had put so much work into it, she looks lovely.
Must have been a hard decision to make, selling it!

What an adorable car, great idea to ditch the D jet. If I had the space (alas still need to sell another 2 cars) I would be so tempted. Good luck and I hope it goes to a good home.
