Launched in 1960 with a body penned by Pininfarina, the 404 became one of the most successful and respected French saloons of its generation. It combined crisp, understated styling with a sturdy engineering approach, and it earned a reputation around the world for comfort, durability and good road manners, from the boulevards of Paris to the dusty tracks of Africa. This 1964 example is finished in a soft cream colour, with chrome bumpers, chrome-trimmed wheels with white-wall style tyres and the classic Peugeot lion at the front. Inside, the cabin has a warm and period-correct feel, with brown velour seats, a bench in the rear, a pale dashboard with a large ribbon-style speedometer and a slim-rimmed steering wheel with a chrome horn ring. According to the seller, the car has been with a single owner from new, is original throughout, and has covered 43000 km. The car carries the historic vehicle designation, which the seller states exempts it from the periodic technical inspection while still allowing it to be driven on the road. The 404 rewards its driver with a smooth, torquey four-cylinder engine, a comfortable long-travel suspension and a spacious cabin with good visibility thanks to its slim pillars and large glass area. It is a car that is easy to enjoy and easy to live with, and the Pininfarina styling continues to attract admirers at classic events. A one-owner Peugeot 404 from sunny Spain is an appealing proposition for any collector of French classics. Condition of the bodywork & paint 4 — Very Good.
