Exceptionally rare with only two road-registered in UK
The Appeal
The 604 was Peugeot’s bid to take on the best executive saloons from Germany and Britain. Despite sharing much of its architecture with the robust 504, Pininfarina’s clever, unfussy reworking delivered a ‘calm elegance’ while the smooth PRV V6 engine provided the performance to move quickly between important boardroom pow-wows.
It was never a big seller in the UK, and today it is one of the rarest classics you can buy. Just two are reportedly currently road-registered in the UK and here is one of them. It is a beautifully presented UK-market RHD 1978 V6 SL with the 2.7L fuel-injected engine. The smart and well kept Bordeaux Red metallic paintwork is matched with a highly original tan leather cabin whose big-cushioned luxury is one of the car’s key calling cards.
The odometer shows under 73,000 miles on a six digit dial, so could be correct, although it isn’t warranted. Here is a rare opportunity to acquire one of Peugeot’s best saloons and become this car’s fourth keeper in its 48 year history. image.png1.34 MB
