If having one Peugeot 504 in your yard makes you a weirdo, then what does it mean if you have 5? A connoisseur? A Francophile? Does the word Francophile come from the similar francopile? Je ne sais pas. Find this collection of 1980s Peugeot 504 (504s?) offered for $8,000 for the entire collection. Is that […]
This is what they call a case of Deja Peug. You know, when you see a Peugoet and you SWEAR you’ve seen that Frenchie before? Yes, this was the “Instant Regret” 504 Cabriot from a year ago — someone bought it on bringatrailer and instantly realized he/she had overpaid….which must happen about 50 times a […]
The Peugeot S106 S16, with its front-wheel-drive setup, darts around corners like a caffeinated squirrel on roller skates. It’s a car that’s constantly reminding you that life is too short for boring journeys. Sure, it may not handle like a precision instrument, but it will hurl you into a realm of delirium where you’ll find […]
The Peugeot 604 was released for the 1975 model year with much fanfare and Pininfarina styling. It was a good looking car that was immediately praised for its “calm elegance”, but sales never met the expectations for an executive luxury car from a European marque. Perhaps the 604 wasn’t special enough to justify the additional […]
This next listing starts with a few simple words from the seller: Hey guys, purchased this car on bring a trailer a few months ago. Relized will not have much time to enjoy it. So looking to sell it. Ooof, that’s not good. The idea of buying a classic car on one of those expensive […]
I bet you can guess who was the head of design at Peugeot when this next car was released. Stylish boxy shape, details that make the design great, and a handsome façade — yup this is a Pininfarina design, but the interior was penned by our favorite French designer Paul Bracq. Unfortunately, the 505 (even […]
When you see a car and think to yourself “wow, I’m glad this comes with a spare car” you should probably stop and think carefully about your purchase. Because, as a rule, cars that come with a spare car are ones where the parts availability is limited to what you can find in the homebrew junkyard in your front yard. However, according to a guy I know who grew up in Africa, the 505 was the last reliable Pug to leave the factories in wherever they were built. I think Jeremy Clarkson might have said the same thing, but he doesn’t have the same street cred as a guy who grew up in Addis Ababa. He probably told me some other things about the diesel powered Peugeot, but I should probably should pay more attention when people tell me things.

This next car comes as a tip from Johnny Bouncewell who writes: This state is full of strange old cars that don’t rust away but instead get fried by the sun. This one would take a serious Francophile to restore but hey, how many French five door wagons are still out there with the proper gearbox? Find this 1985 Peugeot 505S Wagon offered for $2,000 in Los Lunas, NM via craigslist.
This next car…errr…two wheeler…comes from tipper Brad who writes: I thought you might dig this very interesting (presumably rare) little motorbike—although I cannot recall whether you are a cars-only outlet…This old cycle definitely deserves the label survivor, esp. considering it was produced in Europe just as WW2 was getting underway. It seems like all the […]
You used to hear a lot of chatter from car guys over here in the New World about how the Europeans always keep the best stuff to themselves. Everything from higher horsepower M3s to special Evolution editions of Cossie powered Mercedes was the stuff of legend back in the day…but globalization changed much of that […]
