Derivatives

DVLA also registers other body types under the Citroen DS nameplate. Each is counted on its own page, so every figure on this one is cars only.

By year

All 565 surviving Citroen DS cars, by the year each was built - not how many were on the road at the time. DVLA records a build year for only 494 of them; the rest are registered without one and cannot be placed on the year-built bars.
