A mate called me over to look at a barn find Peugeot earlier. Was nothing I am familiar with,suicide doors and looked like it was crying out to be saved or Hot Rodded.
Apology's for the poor photos but we couldn't move it,light was fading and I only had my phone.
There are no badges so I don't know what model it is,only realised it was Peugeot by the lion on the steering wheel.

Its well solid with a bit of surface rust but the metal is really thick,couldn't poke about too much before light went.Been there 30-40 years apparently.
What do we think it is,and what do we think it's worth?
Looks like a 204, 1.3 straight 4, 42-49hp (stole from wiki)

il elaberate where i got the 1923 from
the R on the plate denotes regestered in Derbyshire, derdishire started regestering cars from 1923 my bad sorry
that was a copy and paste error oops
the car is a Peugeot 203 which were in production from 1948 and 1960
i believe the car in the picture to be later than 1953 due to the lack of exposed fuel filler on the rear quater later modles had a cover hatch
offer it to dum dum or the liam!
Nah too old for me, needs saving though!
Tried the reg. and peugeot as the make and the DVLA don't have anything on that. Not especially surprised though.
A museum might even be interested.

a reg search comes up as
Quote:Your vehicle (registration RNM203) has been identified as a * OTHER BRITISH MAKES PETROL SALOON (OTHER).
That is freaking awesome! I want it
Get it mate you've got nothing to loss
Did he give you a 'ball park figure' of what he wanted?
Somebody else has already offered £500 for it. Don't really think I want to pay any more than that for it. It is proper cool, pop out indicators and other quirky stuff, room for a V8 under the bonnet as well but I don't have the time it needs lavishing on it or anywhere to keep it.
This other chap is going to save it so I think I'll leave it to him. Really wish I could have got it for scrap money though, would have found somewhere to keep it then, but I suppose you can't have 'em all can you.
Nice find. Looks tidy enough for the age. At least its been kept undercover. Cars outside are ruined
There was a very early Mini and a Riley Elf that were outside. Absolutely ruined.
