1975 Peugeot 504 V6 Cabriolet
Highlights
- One of only 1,000 V6 Cabriolets
- Very good bodywork and paintwork condition for its age
- Smart and unmodified black leather interior
- Only two keepers since arriving in UK in 2010
- Beautifully presented in desirable colour scheme
- Low mileage of only around 60,000 miles
The Appeal
The 504 Cabriolet is a car that impresses with the economy of its design. Clever Pininfarina touches deliver what is surely amongst the most beautiful drop tops of its era.
And one of the rarest. Just 1,000 were built with Peugeot’s torquey V6, as here. Imported to the UK in 2010 - with just two registered keepers since - it is smartly finished in light blue metallic and in very good condition throughout. The black leather interior looks like a cossetting place to be, whether you’re boulevarding in the South of France or South Kensington.
Well maintained and sparingly used since arriving in the UK, the vendor reports that the car runs and drives well with no issues for the buyer to attend to.

About Max Bids
The max bid process allows you to bid without any hassle.
Enter your maximum bid and we will then bid on your behalf to ensure you're the highest bidder - just enough to keep you in the lead and only up until your maximum.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic prevent auction snipers from bidding in the last seconds to win an auction.
Auctions are extended by 3 minutes if anyone bids within the last 2 minutes to allow other bidders to react and counter-bid.
Auto-bidding increments
- If your maximum bid is equal to or below the reserve price, your maximum bid will be applied in full if you are the highest bidder.
- If you are the highest bidder and place a maximum bid above the reserve, we will automatically put in the reserve as your first bid.
-
- Once the reserve has been met, Car & Classic will make sure you are the highest bidder using only the bidding increments stated below.
- We will keep you in the lead up until your maximum bid OR the increment closest to your maximum bid, providing your maximum bid is enough to cover the increment value.
| Bid Amount | Increment |
|---|---|
| £0 to £9,999 | £100.00 |
| £10,000 to £49,999 | £250.00 |
| £50,000 to £99,999 | £500.00 |
| £100,000 + | £1,000.00 |
Automatically outbid immediately
When you place a max bid and are outbid immediately that means that another bidder has placed a max bid limit which is higher than yours.
You can bid again and we will use our automatic bid system to try and get you as the highest bidder.
Matching max bids
When there are two max bids of the same value, the one placed first remains the lead bidder.
Pre-authorisation
We may hold a pre-authorisation charge on your card until the end of the auction when the hold will be cancelled. If you win, we'll take a security deposit which counts towards the payment for the vehicle and isn't any extra cost to you.
What are pre-bids?
A pre-bid means you're able to place a bid before the official start of the auction.
You will be notified whether or not you are the highest bidder when the auction starts.
Problem with your bid
Bids are contractually binding. To help protect you, we have some rules in place if we think it's been mistyped. Please check and amend what you have entered.
