Aah I see, a Daimler 6 lwb. The clue was in the headrests.

A rather unique classic car, this one-off, the Citroën DS PLR Break, was on the road for Michelin, tyre testing purposes.

8-) I could live with that, but I have no where to park it (out of the weather).

......or with another engine. More details and pictures in this German magazine:

" Hans Sommerauer, a graduate engineer from Switzerland, has given his Citroën 2CV an electric drive. Practical: the "duck" can be charged almost anywhere with five different adapters. How the Swiss mastered the challenges of the classic car conversion and why he chose a duck of all things."

Back to the Citroën DS, special models: what about 8 wheels?

Classic cars, new section, once again featuring the Citroën Traction Avant, its engine more or less transplanted in the earlier production runs of the DS. To be replaced by a more sophisticated one in 1965.
