Peugeot for sale

In 1885, Armand Peugeot set up a bicycle manufacturer at the Beaulieu plant in France. He exhibited the first steam-powered tricycle at the 1889 Paris World Exhibition, making him one of the pioneers of the motor car. During the 1920s Peugeot launched at least 30 models, including the Quadrilette Types 161/4 hp (3,500 made 1920-22) and 172/4 hp (8,705 made in 1923-24). The company began selling cars in the United States in 1958, and in 1960 introduced the Peugeot 404. In 1974 Peugeot bought a 30% share of Citroën, and took it over completely in 1976.
