Phwoarr, I used to roll in a big bumper 16v with the gunmetal wheels before the coloured wheels even became the norm!

No idea why when I add a pic it all goes to shite!

I seem to of been fancying one of these for years, bit of an oddity as made in Maryland and a different platform to the saloon....
Any buying advice or things to look for?

Well I’ve fancied one of these for a bit so it’s replacing my mega economical Clio dci.
I’ve spent many a night looking on the tube of you and when I found this on gumtree I decided to take plunge, has one bit of rust on a rear arch and a small dent on the drivers door, needs a polish up but not bad order!
Already enjoying it and pleased I went for it even tho I am now paying road tax!

That's lovely. It looks like a very honest little motor.
Always wanted one of these for no known or explainable reason.
Then buy it’s English cousin !

Well today I took delivery of a little Peugeot 104 from a member of this parish.
It has been shown before on @MrSchwifty previous threads, but now I am the proud custodian of a typical french dinged and dented car, it does have a nasty dent that will need sorting, but I have no immediate plans to sort the bodywork as it ads to the charm, I have given it a brief scrub up and the interior seems in very good order.
This one is the flappy boot one from 1976, I also have the blue 1978 Uk 104 which I have now sorted the brakes on and is in good running order but will require welding so if there are any takers it is now available.
Big thanks to @worldofcerifor sterling service with collection and delivery!

Look at that interior, yes slightly shagged but looks comfortable.
Must resist
Localish to me and I loved the colours, I could cope with the farm look but not for what they are asking!

Please can we have some pictures when you get it.
Does it have the parcel shelf with integrated storage compartment?
Sure I’ll update once I get it here!
I think it had the storage parcel shelf, too busy looking for damp in the boot!
only downer is a crap bmw detachable tow bar which looks crap, but not bad enough to break a deal based on its other virtues!

Not my favourite shape of BMW, but then, I'm not buying it. Definitely from the era when they still made good solid cars though, lovely engine too. I think you've made a good decision!
It come down to engine and performance, I can’t afford a pug gti, but this has that same engine too big for what now seems a small car feel, a lot of bang for 800 notes but of course with marmite looks!

What have I done now, I got thinking that a 6 cylinder engine with a swift 0 to 60 would do me well in a hatch...... hence the introduction of the 325 ti....

Alan’s Lion goes from Strength to Strength.... 104 woes!

Well actually it doesn’t go from strength to strength.... but the little Peugeot was emptied of what must of been a KG of Bordeaux red dirt, ideal for a grape grower!
Not much else has yet happened to get it on the road but it’s going in for an overhaul to get the brakes and running sorted.
Found some documents in the sun visors today which gave the last french owners details, bit of google investigation shows that it was last living in Tours despite its Bordeaux 24 plate, belonging to a Madame Besse who was last pottering around in it back in 1997, however she departed in feb this year at a grand 91 years old.
That’s all I know other than her husband was a bad hand with a bit of filler and a spray can 😄
Will update again soon!
