DS9 Review
With a premium French twist, the DS9 is competing with a German dominated market, maintaining comfort and practicality with all the style of the traditional design.
If you crave a modern, elegant executive saloon but you also want something a little bit different to the tried-and-trusted offerings from BMW and Audi, the DS 9 could fit the bill.
A rival to the likes of the Audi A6 or BMW 5 Series, the 9 is the flagship of the DS range, sitting ahead of the DS 7 Crossback.

The DS 9 launched with two trim levels available, ‘Performance Line +’ and ‘Rivoli +’.
You can expect flush-fitting door handles, heated, massaging and ventilated seats both front and rear, an Alcantara roof lining, swathes of Nappa leather in the ‘lounge’ like interior, and distinctive pearl stitching as a ‘nod to high fashion’.

Cameron is honestly the best person to deal with, this is the second time I’ve gone through him to find a car and he’s so helpful and quick. This time I wasn’t sure which vehicle I wanted and he found me a great car on a good deal too. Thanks again!
Messaging option was good on the portal, but the information was not provided when the car was ready but minus tow bar.
The people were excellent to deal with, especially Anthony. The car took an age to arrive though (not Select’s fault). Whenever I asked for info I got it straight away which made life less stressful.
