sorry but the mirrors are absolutely original and paint on metal, so no plastic!
But you're right, they are not very sexy. The problem is that every Chapron car is different because hand made and Chapron sometimes liked to try different things.
@dsadvies ok, I know that every Chapron is build differently. Back then you bought your DS at Citroen and then Henry Chapron makes a convertible of it. The finishing was like the customer desired and that's the reason why all DS convertible are different. Very weird to see these black mirrors, first time i see those...
I'm sitting in my own drool,There's something about French design.Citroens,The Normandie,Eiffel Tower look avant garde yet classic.They root themselves into your subconscious like few man made objects do.
A machine from another dimension, beautiful forever, and mystical beyond description. Video very nicely done. The ending shot with the car reversing into the garage is marvelous.
which are the differences with a normal cabriolet?

Hi Amisven

Makes me pine for my old long lost DS. Although not a Chapron, it still has a piece of my heart 20+ years later. Thanks for the clip!

What a brilliant car, nothing like at in my view, at 30 or 50mph on a crumpled up country road with the roof down with nothing flying out.

What a car. Forget all the new stuff, *this* is a design, which never will be reached.
A dream...
