It would be interesting to see what sometihng like that is worth. There isn't going to be many people that want such an old car The people that remember them from there childhood would now be in there 90's.
The red ID 19 is my neighbour's car. Its excellent and regularly goes for quite long interstate trips. Its very original in every detail and from what I've observed could still be a daily drive.In my 30-years of DS ownership I can’t remember a time when there’s been so many for sale on Carsales (and like).
There’s currently 12 for sale, just on Carsales, with at least a couple more on Gumtree.
And the quality of them is also good, ranging from pretty good to very tasty indeed
Not sure why they are all emerging.
Any thoughts ?
Yes that's correct - a Dubbo boy from the family who owned the general store over the road from the Old Dubbo High School which was part of my historyI'd understood the red ID19B was once owned by Kep Enderby, NSW judge and member of the Whitlam govt.

I lived around the corner from the Enderby's - in Red Hill - in the 60's/70's and went to school with his son. I recall the family's Citroen. It fitted with Kep's quirkiness. Amongst other things he was an advocate for Esperanto.I'd understood the red ID19B was once owned by Kep Enderby, NSW judge and member of the Whitlam govt.
Exactly right .D's are owned by older people who wished they could have owned one whe n they were younger and couldn't afford it.
Well...It still goes back to the fact that most D's are owned by older people who wished they could have owned one whe n they were younger and couldn't afford it. The recipient of one in a will rarely wants a car that has no air con, no power windows etc. etc. and especially one where very few mechanics will even look at a D let alone work on them.
So it's true that...." The more things change, the more they remain the same"I considered joining the Citroen Car Club back then but it was full of old, white haired gits
Well, some things change.So it's true that...." The more things change, the more they remain the same"

I am now old, white haired and a member of CCCNSW.

This really is a nice car
These things are always interesting : Prices from Wheels Magazine September 1975I bought a GSpecial 1015 in 1975 for $4700 new which was the same price that Toyota Corollas were selling for at the time. But I lost that price advantage when I traded up to a GS 1220 Pallas in 1978 for $10,500 and then got it airconditioned.
