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?

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

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.

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.

There was a very early Mini and a Riley Elf that were outside. Absolutely ruined.
