The Peugeot 203 C is a characterful French classic from the 1950s. With its distinctive styling, elegant details and straightforward mechanics, it represents a typical example of post-war French automotive design.




This example was first registered on 1 July 1959 and is finished in Beige-Brown. The 1,290 cc engine is paired with a 4-speed manual transmission. The indicated mileage is 20,243 km. The chassis number is 203C1904850.




The car underwent a professional restoration in the past and presents well. The interior was restored and shows normal signs of use. The soft top has been renewed. The underside is original and in good condition, showing the characteristics of an older restoration.




Technically, the Peugeot is in good, honest condition and has been well maintained. The clutch and gearbox operate perfectly. The brakes, handbrake and suspension also function well. Points of attention include the older tyres, the battery, oil loss at the rear brake backing plates and several electrical functions.




Our Oldtimerfarm inspection team has prepared an inspection report for this vehicle.
