  • Sports exhaust system and sports silencer.

  • High-performance suspension with adaptive front and rear shock-absorbers.

The DS3's shell is grey with a black fabric roof and the car rides on 18"alloy wheels rims. The red DS logo on the centre caps and red brake callipers are nice touches.

The colour scheme continues in the cabin with Alcantara seats sporting the Citroen Racing emblem in red stitching. The grey dashboard has a bold red vertical stripe. A numbered plate, positioned in front of the gear shifter, highlights the model’s limited-edition status.
