Description
A unique opportunity to acquire a ultra low milage, 2009 Concourse winning 504, if you are up for a project.
My late father purchased this car as a non-runner in 2023. It had been sat in a heated, sealed showroom since 2011. He got it running and MOT'd for around six months before he passed away at the end of the year. Since then I have not been able to get it running again (admittedly I've not tried that hard) and I don't really have the appetite to pick it up as a project. It's currently stored in a garage and was fully cleaned before being sat to store.
It's now time for it to move on as I'd like to be driven and not sat around!
The bodywork on this car is near perfect given it's age, likely due to it's low miles and good storage. It was painted grey at one point in it's life and then back to the original blue, which looks near new!
It has tones of history, some clips pictured, right through to 2011 where it then was sat. Original owners manual, documents dating back to the 70s/ 80s.
Give me a call if you'd like to know more , happy to send pictures and videos. 1970 Peugeot 504 Cabriolet – Known History
