Commercialisation year2010
In 2010 Tecnitoys marketed two versions of the same car, a Citroën DS 21 with references 6461 and 6473. The latter came with a "snow effect" finish. Both featured rear-wheel drive, front and rear LED lights and a guide with an automatic return system and double braid. The model in blue and #195 carries the Monte Carlo Rally decal and the names of Pauli Toivonen and Ensio Mikkander. Tecnitoys drew inspiration from this 1966 Monte Carlo Rally-winning car for its reference 6473 snow effect model.

Year1966
The Citroën DS 21 was a front-wheel drive saloon used in rallying during the 1960s, notable for its innovative self-levelling hydropneumatic suspension, which gave it outstanding stability on snow and uneven surfaces. Equipped with a 2.2-litre engine producing around 100–115 bhp, it was not the most powerful in its class, but it was one of the most effective in difficult conditions. Its greatest sporting achievement was victory at the 1966 Rallye Automobile de Monte-Carlo with Pauli Toivonen and Ensio Mikkander at the wheel, an edition that would go on to become controversial due to the disqualification of several factory entries over technical lighting regulations.
