1980 Peugeot 504

Four seats, open top, well appointed

This comfortable, timelessly-classical convertible was designed by Pininfarina. As it is one of the few convertibles which really offers four fully fledged seats, this car is perfectly suited for a family or group of friends to explore the Cape or the Garden Route . The boot is large enough for your entire luggage.

The Peugeot 504 was rather expensive even in its heyday and only 8188 of them were built in more than 12 years. The 504 convertibles were basically rusting away in front of your very eyes - which is the reason why this enjoyable automobile treat is almost an extinct species in Europe . Both of our Peugeots spent their lives in Johannesburg where rust had no chance of getting at them. The 2-litre engine with injection pump, together with the five-speed transmission, effortlessly produces handsome road performance.

Take this true collector's item to the roads and explore Cape Town and the Garden Route . A visit to Franschhoek is a must, of course: with this dream on wheels made in France you have to be seen in the little town which proudly cultivates its French origins.

What can be more tempting than driving a convertible to a wine estate for a picnic of fresh baguette and a glass of red wine! Our recommendation is Boschendal Wine Estate, close to Franschhoek. You can buy a basket full of goodies at the estate and enjoy your picnic in the wonderful park.
