The Peugeot 404 Sedan has earned its place in automotive history. Introduced in 1960, it quickly gained a reputation for its robustness and reliability, qualities that were proven on the world's toughest rally stages. Conversely, those same properties made it a perfect taxi cab, and they were soon a common sight in some of Europe's most legendary cityscapes.
This particular 1973 example, originating from Germany, carries a sense of nostalgia and charm that is hard to resist. Its open roof feature and excellent period condition should make this a highly beguiling classic.
