1974 Citroen DS23 Pallas Vanneau Beige in 1:18 scale
This is the 1974 Citroen DS23 Pallas Vanneau Beige in 1:18 scale by Norev.
The 1974 Citroën DS23 Pallas in Vanneau Beige is a testament to French automotive innovation and luxury, setting it apart from its contemporaries with technology and comfort that were far ahead of the era. What truly distinguished the DS23 was its hydropneumatic self-leveling suspension, which delivered an impossibly smooth, “magic-carpet” ride unmatched by rivals and adjusted automatically to load and road conditions. The Pallas trim elevated this with upscale interior appointments, including premium upholstery, wood-trim accents, and advanced features like power steering and air conditioning — rare luxuries in the early 1970s. Its aerodynamic, futuristic design and front-wheel-drive layout not only gave it a unique presence on the road but also superior handling and braking performance compared with many traditional rear-drive sedans of the time. The DS23 Pallas remains celebrated for merging avant-garde engineering with refined comfort in a way few competitors could match.
This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. These diecast
models are exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Interior detail is hand assembled and easily
visible. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used for a most
authentic replication.
