Cars of Coolhaven

I do seem to run into these nice cars quite often, but hey, who cares. They look nice, and taking a few pictures is easy enough. Enjoy. The Peugeot 404 was a mid-sized car produced from 1960 to 1988. This was the most successful of several contemporary cars whose body style, designed by Battista ‘Pinin’ […]

Although I currently drive a Peugeot, I certainly don’t appreciate all Peugeots. However, with this sleek and smart cabrio, I spot myself a car I really like. Not surprisingly, it has a Pininfarina badge on the side… Now, don’t get me wrong. This is a Peugeot 504, and not a very exciting car. A relatively […]

This Peugeot really has won my heart. If anything shows from earlier posts, I certainly have a thing for old French cars. But this little, ugly, strangely proportioned 304s really is near the top for me, well, at least till I spot something even better. For sheer amusement, the Citroën 2CV AZ-L is even better, […]

Will you look at this car… It is completely shot! The paint job is horrible, the interior is almost non-existent. Rust and debri everywhere. A car in this state would be perfect for MTV’s Pimp my ride or something like that. I wonder if it still runs, or is it just rusting away on this […]

Not particularly outstanding, but since it is quite rare to spot one ‘alive’, why not take some pictures of this old Peugeot 404. It is a wee bit rusty, which isn’t surprising… The interior appears to be intact and authentic, rather stereotypical French velour hahaha. And of course this Peugeot is proudly fitted with yellow […]
