A very rare example of the 202 'Canadienne' estate car variant.
Powered by a four-cylinder 1,133cc OHV engine coupled to a three-speed synchromesh gearbox. Between 1947 and 1949, the manufacturer produced 3,015 timber bodied conversions. Running and driving up until seven years ago. Now a non-runner. Around 88,000km and it's accompanied by its French Carte Grise. Could be in demand in the film/TV industry. NB. On offer from a private collection, this vehicle has not been used for some time. It is a non-runner and is strictly 'Sold as Seen'. Formerly producers of tools, coffee mills, umbrella spikes and corsetry, Peugeot commenced its long-standing connection with transport in 1885 when it added cycle manufacture to its portfolio.
The second oldest motor manufacturer in the world, the company commenced car production in 1889 with a steam-powered tri-car but soon abandoned steam in favour of the internal combustion engine, building a succession of ever-larger automobiles before introducing the first of its famous Bebe light cars in 1900. New for 1939, the Peugeot 202 was powered by a four-cylinder 1,133cc overhead-valve engine coupled to a three-speed synchromesh gearbox with worm drive rear axle. The suspension was independent at the front and the 202 followed the lines of the larger 402, its streamlined styling reflecting the late-1930s preoccupation with passenger-car aerodynamics.
Between 1947 and 1949, the manufacturer produced 3,015 timber bodied.
