All credits to Iksr (https://www.gta5-mods.com/users/iksr) who provided me this model.It was a high polygon model, in quads it was over 560k, means after converting in triangles over a million. The model had no engine, and had holes between the outer and inner parts- means needed even more polygons.
What I did? First I changed most of interior parts; optimized seats and dashboard I had from my earlier DS model (from year before). Dashboard is low polly, made more of my textures - but still looks good enough. For all other parts I did "welding", step by step, part by part. It took lot of time (and it's not that fun to degrade a model), but in the end I reached less than 300k polygons. I did another rounds of "welding" and optimizing to make LODs, and I've got this:
HIGH LOD:----------> 286.706,
MEDIUM LOD:---------> 12.591,
LOW LOD:-------------> 3.558,
and VERY LOW LOD:------> 478 Polygons.
That should be enough not to be too much for the game, I guess.
As this car has some special features I did some things I did never before.It is about trunk and suspension. Thanks MrGTAmodsgerman (https://www.gta5-mods.com/users/MrGTAmodsgerman) for pointing me to two cars from the game: "Fagaloa" for the boot, and "Hermes" for suspension.
The trunk is made up of two parts, one of which opens upwards and one downwards.It works really well, however does not work in old versions of the game.I'm not too happy with suspension, but on the end I decided to include it just because it's one of the things you think of first about this car. This also does not work with old versions, or any pirate version of the game.To make matters worse, it is not compatible with some other mods. If such a thing is a "nightmare" for you, you can just replace Add-on vehicle files (dsbreak.yft and dsbreak_hi.yft) with the ones in the replace folder (regina.yft and regina_hi.yft) and there will bi no suspension troubles. Everything else would be the same, even the livery tuning would work fine. Yes,You can turn the car into an ambulance version (in Benny's). I made this tuning option because Ambulance version of this car had a significant place in history.
There are two "double-plate" versions ( US or EU shape ) for both versions ( AddOn and Replace )of the car. Yes, this car used to have double rear plates ( https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Citroen_DS_double_plate_res.jpg ) so it could legally ride with the open lower part of the trunk. In GTA V this option you will have only (and allways:)) in some older version of the game after you open and close the trunk. Towing hook is not included this time even though I originally planned it.Suspension and trunk features did not support it. I included a livery template, but it's for advanced users only (material=vehicle_paint4), who know how to make a livery mode as a tuning part and to replace one (or more) of my livery modes.
And yes - All glass breakable (including outer and inner mirrors or platelights), dials (mph), driver and passenger position, dirt, dust, scratches, damage, burnt, inner glass does not turn black after upgrade..., I tested all I could remember and it all works fine. If I forgot something, please forgive me.I need a GTAV "Break" now :) and work on some IRL things ... next car probably not before spring
That's it, enjoy! I hope you will like it.

Very nice mod with perfect quality. Could you also update your mod of sedan version? Thansk. https://de.gta5-mods.com/vehicles/citroen-ds21-add-on-and-replace

You do not get enough credit for the work you put in those oldtimers. It's quite moving, especially for us Europeans, to see those cars on GTA V's roads.
Pllus: you now have base models to, one day, make the Citroën CX -- and I reaaally wish there was at least one Citroën SM on yugoslav roads back in the days ^^.
Hvala!

hi! I model cars bro. but I don't convert them now. since you like classics I have a peugeot 104-1978 would you like to convert

@mazdakmoradi91 Hi. I have done Peugeot 204, and I could go for more Peugeots. Of course, it depends on how the model is done. I know it’s certainly made better than I would have made from scratch, but I have a lot of models from that period waiting. Can you show some pictures?

@wunder99 NP, I can give template "https://imgur.com/gallery/9NniPNI" But livery is tuning part, it is not simple, it is embeded texture... also tuning part is locked, you can't edit it. You could only make your own livery tuning part and replace mine. You can check, for example, "sultanRS" livery mods to see how it works.

From the front the most modern vehicle styled ever. I had the experience to own one for a year ( regular DS 21 ). They are much nicer to look at. Thank you 4 bringing that memory back

if you have the spare time, could you please chop the roof off. I am having the time of my life to slowly drive around the whole GTA V area in your https://www.gta5-mods.com/vehicles/citroen-ds21-add-on-and-replace DS 21 cabrio (changed to fwd and modified the engine and suspension to make it a near authentic ride - I drove one for a year). Your old model is fine, but somebody went to the front wheel house with a flex and this looks awful. If you do the conversion, please have a look at some pictures, they left a tiny part of the roof attached to the wind screen.

@NajPotez Ich hatte damals relativ schnell aufgegeben, das Auto umzulackieren, auch weil es nicht mit LSPD:FR kompatibel ist. Ich würde dieses sehr schöne Fahrzeug als Krankenwagen trotzdem gerne nutzen, nur leider geht dies nur, wenn es eine Stand-alone-Version gäbe. Könntest du bitte den Krankenwagen als eigenes Fahrzeug veröffentlichen?
At that time I had given up relatively quickly to repaint the car, also because it is not compatible with LSPD:FR. I would still like to use this very nice vehicle as an ambulance, but unfortunately this is only possible if there would be a stand-alone version. Could you please publish the ambulance as a stand-alone vehicle?

N O T E : Active suspension features are not compatible with some other mods ("vstancer"mod, or autodrive option in "Menyoo"...as I tested, car remains low) It also doesn't support pirate versions of the game (I just tested some - car remains high ).
WHAT CAN YOU DO?
If this incompatibility with other mods is a issue for you (after installation) just replace "Add-on" vehicle files (dsbreak.yft and dsbreak_hi.yft) with the ones in the replace folder (regina.yft and regina_hi.yft) it should fix it...
... but test original Add-On car first, maybe you like it:)
ALSO Boot (TRUNK) is not compatible with older game versions (before mpassault). In those versions lower part of the boot will open after spawn and will stay open. To fix this you can only update your game.
