Over 1,300,000 Citroën DS/ID's were built from 1955 to 1975. I am the lucky owner of one of them, a gorgeous 1968 ID 19.

"Listservers", or "lists" have been around for a long time. They have gained even more popularity now that they share pictures and files with ease. Yahoo offers lists on most any subject. You can even start your own and they are completely free. There are several devoted to the D. One is citroen-dsid and another is DSeries-L. Each has its unique personality, but the main reason you want to join is the vast reservoir of information. Very international in flavor, these lists are completely devoted to the care and restoration of the Citroën D model. Looking for a part? Can't fix it? We can help. See you soon!
