Peugeot 201 in concours


This nice sedan is a Peugeot type 201 in a concours d’elegance, somewhere in France, in 1929.
The body is a standard work sedan, the wire wheels are an option proposed by Peugeot and the radiator mascot has been chosen by the proud owner.

The concours d’elegance were not only dedicated to the “automobiles de grand luxe” such as Hispano, Bugatti , Delage and other Delahaye. Popular cars such as this tiny Peugeot were allowed to participate in their own class. Peugeot but also Renault, Citroën, SIMCA and other popular cars were familiar to those meetings of elegance.
