Citroën DS, the miracle of travelling (HD) 

I think to this day this is the best high budget and most well produced video by Istvan "Pista" Valyi

That probably is the finest video I have ever seen depicting the most beautiful car ever built even if you might have made some mistakes ;).

In my mind this is still, and always will be, the most gorgeous car ever made.

61 years later and this car is Still Ahead of the others !

Very nice one....good pictures, background and music! Bravo! I have a 1969 DS 21 in Jakarta.

It STILL looks like a car from the future.

Congratulations for this fabulous short movie of the greatest car ever made , thank you.

one of the greatest cars ever built

Beautiful car, but why do all these feature films depict the facelift model instead of the original single headlamp version? By the way, the DS does not have 4 wheel disc brakes,

I had model nest to this,,the CX Pallas with all those features,,but diffrent transmission the C Matic Manul 3 speed gearbox without a clucth paddle,, a unique combination for comfort I was lucky to have 2 such cars at a time in Dubai,,,,, used for 7 years,,

Fantastic video, beautifully done! I have a DS 21 Break (same colour, too!), and I can vouch for the car's capabilities... both on the road and as a traffic-stopper everywhere it goes... Keep up the great work!

Too Bad How People or Should I say the most of the car Companies Turned Greedy & we don't Get to see A Car Like this at a Reasonable Price.. Love DS

Wow.. I love how you not only capture the essence of the car, but also show how amazingly Budapest really is... I love Budapest and Hungary so freaking much - Swedish car freak

She's so beautiful I almost cried.

What an exceptional video you posted here. Only possible when you truly love the DS. Gonna watch it again and a few times more I guess ✌🏻

Fantastic Car...I had two!!But design whas of Bertoni!!!!

Wow. This was too good. It's now my goal in life to buy a DS.

C'est une voiture française et le gars parle l'espagnol et traduction anglaise .La traduction en Français aurait été plus courtoise et polie.

great video, great car, it's good to watch someone who knows what he's talking about, a very rare thing for the auto-journals these days...

it was the first production car with discs... it only had two in the front

To me, the nicest car ever made

Thank you. We're looking forward to make more films with english subs, even older ones. And maybe - one day - you will be surprised with something we can't tell now :)

Fantastic video. Thank you for the English sub-titles. I sure could enjoy what you were saying about your beautiful Citroen DS. Excellent driving scenes to experience in a way what you were extolling about this fabulous car. Wonderful video!!!!

Bought mine last year - 1970 DS21 Pallas EFi , semi- automatic, RHD in Vert Argent (Metallic Green). It is spectacular. I adore it.

The greatest car ever built!

Amazing design of an old car which left it's fingerprint on future design. See Tesla's front end in comparison to the DS.

It only has disc brakes in the front, but cleverly placed at the gearbox. The rear are drums.

@John K "a french BMW" Thanks God it is nothing like a BMW...

A great car. I do not believe it was allowed into the USA. Hungarian language must have been similar to Finnish & Estonian man years ago but not today.

I had one once. The beauty of traveling indeed!

One of the coolest car ever made.

Super vidé, bravo La Citroën ds la voiture française par excellence, j'étais enfant et émerveillé devant cette voiture,les docteurs notaire haut fonctionnaire roulé avec cette voiture exceptionnel pour son époque, pour moi toujours dans l'ère du temps

this car its a dream

Inderdaad het is zoals zitten op een wolk. Deze auto is appart én spéciaal..!

Ilyen teszteket csináljatok Pista!

Nice overview of the car. Yours, in this royal blue color, is truly beautiful. At times, your pictures clearly show how stable the bodywork is: it literally floats through the holes in the road without so much as shaking!! Thanks for posting this.

for all those people who say french cars dont work...

The cinematography on this video is superb!

The best car ever made and the spirit lives forever. The best video about DS ever made with so much passion. Respect.

Beautiful video, beautiful car! Bravo.

Its Hungarian isn't it??

Wonderful ! Thank you very much! Brings back so many wonderful memories! Even though driving a C5 V6 and a C6 the feeling of sitting in a DS is one of a kind! Best car ever!

Excellent video. Lovely car. A true goddess. Thanks

What a beauty! My dad had the same one, same colour inside ans outside.

Any time I ever see a Citroen, which is very rare these days, I always hear one of Erik Satie's Gymnopedies playing in my head!

Excellent video showcasing possibly the best car ever! Why did Citroen not continue with swivelling lights and hydropneumatic suspension which was so good it was used under licence by Rolls Royce. My dad had an ID20 nearly 50 years ago and I was totally amazed by it. It still has a futuristic look about it. Thank you for presenting this.

Même en 2019 le dessin de cette voiture est toujours d'actualité vraiment en avance sur son temps . DS forever .

Lovely video work, bring more classic along please. Subscribed?!!

Superb!

Excellent video. You have captured the essence of their tremendous engineering marvel, that is both mechanical, and emotional. Well done.

What's the music from minute 8:40 to the end?

My favourite ever ! E-type second !

-zseniális videó. kb évente 1x megnézem :)

I grew up with these big Citroen sedans, and have owned one in adult life. This video is as good as you're going to find in RU-vid about what makes the DS series special. In my retirement years I drive a supercharged Jaguar sedan. But my heart remains stuck in France with these frog-faced beauties. Maybe because during my formative years my Dad, a country doctor, owned a succession of DS sedans that could brave Canadian winters when Jeep Cherokees would not dare to venture out. He used to take me with him on house calls. As I found out later, a DS21 would happily cruise at 100 mph or with just a few less mph deliver 30 mpg. And it rode-LITERALLY-like a cloud. The DS can't be compared with other cars, it's just not fair. My fellow boomers will understand when I quote Vitas Gerulaitis about being beaten by Bjorn Borg: “I was playing tennis. He was playing something else.”

Such a passionate natural story Thank you for sharing

Ezek a gömbök már nem szétszedhetőek. Sajnos :( Lehet is látni a membrán magasságában a hegesztést körbe.

View of car at minute 9:32 is stunning.

Beautiful car and some very nice video work!

What an amazing car, I'd love to own one someday..

absolutely great car, but it should be on Michelins (XAS then XVS after 1973) - the car was designed to run on them! John from Australia

Thank you for amazing video.

DS l'auto più bella di sempre !!!

A framework of the automotive industry

But it's so *French*! Idiosyncratic even when standardization is a blessing.

Great work! Greak car, and great City! I love it all

Excellent video captures the eath-shattering magic of the DS.

Best car and best DS video ever.. Thank you ❤️

Yes please dp - because the rest of us who would like to own the epitome of a DS would prefer to buy it instead. A properly set and maintained BVH gearbox is a joy to drive.

Ich dachte immer, Citroen DS sei ein Thema, das cinematografisch endgültig bearbeitet sei. Aber dieser Film erreicht eine neue Stufe der Liebeserklärungen, auf dem künstlerischen Niveau des Autos selbst! Mein großes Kompliment für dieses Kunstwerk nach Ungarn (wer hätte das gerade von dort erwartet) von einem Liebhaber aus Deutschland (ID 19, D-Super, ID 20 Break, DS 21 Pallas, CX 2200 D, GTI, 2500 TD Break, XM Exclusive, C6 2,7).

Awesome video dedicated to the Citroen DS! It really makes you appreciate it's rare eccentricity :)

Gyönyörű !!! Mennyit kóstálhat egy ilyen restaurált darab ? Honnan szereznek hezzá alkatrészt ?

My family had one of those since I can remember back in the 80s, it was such a pleasure to look at.

flying carpet.

Szeretnénk még sok ilyet látni Pista!Művészi munka!

Dear >Totalcarmagazine> 1:56 the first mass produced front wheel drive car was STOEWER V5 designed 1930 and manufactured in Szczecin PL(Stettin DE) from 1931 to 1932 in 2,1 thousand egz . So please do make a short actualization of Your narration.

Loved this What a car!!!

Nice to know there are real Citroen amateurs even in countries such as Hungary with no domestic automobile industry.

THE CAR all automobile manufacturers trying to surpass but still failing to do so...

@Nicholas Scarff The ds was first produced in 1955, 2 yrs before that Jaguar...

The best car ever!

Superb car and video..

I love these cars.

Very nice !

As soon as a blemish appeared on the bodywork they ceased to be beautiful! I dont know why? but the lines needed to be perfect. In the 70s and 80s I saw so many of these rusting away and never has so much rust been supported and moved on such a small area.

Without a doubt, the finest car ever made. Brava!!

Yes, it's a mighty fine car - and you even do not have to pump the gaspedal with start to have suspension to act - if the pump is ok it just rises steady after a small time, a few seconds... The engine is so quiet you almost don't hear it idling, no tincking noises of valvetrain and high pitch whines like today is the norm even in new cars. Just loved it, had one in my youth...

S'il est juste de parler de Lefebvre et de Bertoni ,on oubli injustement de parler du père de l'hydraulique Citroën ,Paul Mages !

That was incredibly beautiful.

very nice work ,bravo my friend ;)

A wonderfull car and a wonderful video. Really, camera and music choise... felt like a little vacation for me.

un point de repère de l'industrie automobile

This car deserves it

Milyen gyerekhangod volt itt Pityu.

Muy guapo hombre y coche....

Fine film making.

Um marco da indústria automobilística

I think, the guys using DSLR cams, D5, D7.

The owner could improve his ride by fitting the correct Michelin Tyres that were designed for the car and get rid of the cross ply tyres currently fitted!

Who made the original video before you subtitled it, please and added the bookending bits? I know I've seen it on RU-vid, but can no longer find it. Thanks! And I do appreciate the subs.

Супер. Про гидроподвеску отдельная тема, но то что уже в 1955 году французы уже делали поворачивающиеся фары это меня очень поразило и удивило, молодцы.
