About the Citroen DS 21 Palm Beach Black Norev 1:18

TL;DR: Norev's 1:18 diecast Citroen DS 21 Palm Beach in black is a sealed one-piece casting of the rare open-top DS convertible. The DS's hydropneumatic suspension and futuristic styling made it one of the most significant automotive designs of the 1960s. A genuinely special piece for a French classic collection.

The DS convertible occupied a small, distinguished niche within Citroen's already groundbreaking sedan lineup, its open-top Palm Beach bodywork built in far smaller numbers than the standard saloon, and Norev's black diecast rendition treats that rarity seriously.

A Sealed Diecast Build Focused on Elegant Proportions

The zinc alloy body of this DS 21 carries genuine weight, and the sealed one-piece construction lets the convertible's elegant, low-slung profile read as one continuous, uninterrupted shape, an approach that suits the DS's smooth, futuristic surfacing better than a body broken up by opening seams. Norev renders the character line running the length of the doors and the distinctive DS front-end treatment with real precision, and because the panels are fixed, every detail lives on the exterior: the folded-top silhouette, the chrome trim outlining the beltline, and a black finish that shows genuine depth against the car's smooth, minimal ornamentation. The DS's aerodynamic shape, radical for its 1955 debut and still striking through the 1960s, comes across clearly in this scale.

A Rare Variant for a Serious French Classics Shelf

At roughly 25 centimeters, the DS's long, low convertible profile stands apart dramatically from the sedan-bodied DS models that dominate most collections of this car. The Palm Beach convertible represents one of the rarer factory-associated DS variants, giving this piece genuine distinction beyond just its open-top styling. The DS's hydropneumatic self-leveling suspension and innovative design made it one of the most technologically significant cars of its era, a reputation this convertible variant inherits fully. Displayed beside a standard DS sedan, the differences in roofline and proportion become immediately clear, making the case for why this special-bodied variant deserves its own place in a serious collection.
