My dream car except colour unfortunately I can never have one as in the country of Georgia we can not bring cars in under 2005 ,I have been a fan of them for years
I like the way you could start it....push the gear change lever to the extreme left and voila! I used to call this car the car with bullets because of the position of the rear lights - ok, a dumb thing...we had a 74 Peugeot 504 which was a grand car...comfort to rival your ds..I am happy to know it will be fully restored in Japan - I have come to prefer the TA from following the videos of a guy in Brittany... best wishes, chuck
4:45 what is the proper way to downshift with this transmission? I see the car shuddered at that time. Do you have to let the gas pedal completely and be under a certain speed for each gear? The upshifts seem very good, fast yet smooth.
If you lift the gas the shifts are smoother and slower, you can shift under full throttle, because the transmission automatically disables power during the shift, the shift is faster but less smooth.
@@MrTheMiguelox Thanks. Does this work for downshifts as well? Is it sufficient to take the foot off the gas before the downshift to make it smooth or you have to lift foot off the gas and wait for the speed to drop below a certain threshold for each gear before making the downshift?
Non il tournait sur 3 cylindre avec un injecteur bouché... Gros manque de puissance egalement. La direction n'avait aucun probleme, la voiture est maintenant entierement restaurée et utilisée presque au quotidien ici au Japon. Les pneus avaient par contre au moins 25 ans si ce n'est plus (des Kleber super vieux) et avait du etre changés...
Si c 'est les pneus change les vite..., tu as des mouvements d'une amplitude démentielle pour tenir la voiture en ligne droite. J'ai 2 DS dont une IE si je les conduis comme ca je sors de la route direct au bout de 100m :)
lol It's not meant to be interesting, it was only done to go with this article: oppositelock.kinja.com/1973-citroen-ds21-ie-the-oppo-review-1749757529 And I'd happily have more than one camera, but at the time I had only one so...
