A deliciously 90’s Peugeot Buxy unregistered with just 21 miles!

MODEL HISTORY
Peugeot Motorcycles designed the Buxy model in conjunction with a series of trendy 50cc bikes which included the chic Zenith and distinctive Squab and Speedake models and even a fully electric version called the Scoot’elec. Hugely popular particularly in European cosmopolitan cities very few survived past the Millennium!

EQUIPMENT
High tensile tubular steel frame, impact resistant ABS plastic body panels, ASA colour impregnated body, Buxy decals, integrated indicators, light alloy wheels, upside-down telescopic fork front suspension, mono hydraulic shock absorber rear suspension, front disc brake, electric start, automatic choke, speedometer, fuel gauge, mirrors, low oil warning light, electric horn, helmet storage, steering lock, case hardened steel theft proof ring, under seat lockable compartment.

EXTERIOR
This Buxy in the original colour scheme Purple, (Code VK), is virtually perfect, commensurate with a bike covering just 21 miles with only a light scratch to the headlight faring. The rugged styled trim pieces and ‘Buxy’ decals are fully intact and damage free and all clips, nuts and bolts are excellent. The footboard, faring, rubbers and switchgear are all as new, as is the seat which lifts to reveal factory stickers intact as well as the original frame number stamp. An effortlessly stylish and beautifully preserved example, perfect for café culture fashionistas, or as the brochure suggests, riding through a stream while your friends watch and clap!

ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
The 2-stroke single cylinder air cooled engine features CDI ignition, automatic choke and electric start for effortless everyday use. This quiet 50cc unit is incredibly frugal! All mechanical components are spotless clean with factory PDI dabs preserved and the original exhaust remains fitted. The fully auto transmission with automatic centrifugal clutch works perfectly and allows straightforward fool proof scootering with a guaranteed beaming smile!

WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
The gunmetal light alloy wheels are original and as new as are the super-chunky factory fitted Michelin Reggae tyres of size 120/90-10 front and 130/90-10 rear which still have rubber nobbles and coloured banding within the tread. This Buxy features a single 190mm front disc and 110mm rear drum braking set up which stops the bike quickly and safely.

HISTORY FILE
In 1995, a company called Three Cross Motorcycles began importing Peugeot scooters to the UK. Mr Gudgeon, a Garden Centre Proprietor, purchased a number of unregistered scooters with the idea to retail them from his Garden Centre business. The Buxy was priced at £1,549 + OTR charges but after limited success with this venture, it was decided that his skills lay in selling soil and mulch, not scooters and mopeds! All bikes were sold bar two, this Buxy and a similar Zenith L model. The very minimal mileage was accrued as the scooters were used for fun on the large garden centre site and they were stored at other times in one of the large dry barns. KGF Classic Cars are selling this bike as an unregistered example, however an official dating certificate has been acquired from Peugeot Scooters confirming the bike was manufactured on the 10th November 1995. This will allow the bikes to easily be UK registered with the DVLA. The bike starts, runs and rides and all functions operate, however the bike is being sold as an unregistered collector’s example for display and full recommissioning, MOT and registration will be required if the bike is to be put into use.

The original service and warranty book are present along with a sales brochure and price list as well as the original build label and Three Cross Motorcycles PDI certificate. The decade of boy bands, Gladiators and Global Hypercolor t-shirts, the 90’s could not be more in vogue right now and what better way to celebrate this than an as new Peugeot Buxy scooter!

The last ever registered Peugeot 306 Rallye with only 309 miles from new.

EQUIPMENT
Body colour sports bumpers, side impact beams, halogen headlamps, body coloured door mirrors, rear spoiler, wide bodyside mouldings, chrome exhaust extension, tinted glass, power steering, height adjustable drivers seat, pretentioned front seat belts with weblocks, drivers airbag, headlight height adjust, Clarion radio/cassette player with remote steering column control, remote central locking, transponder engine immobiliser, digital clock, remote petrol cap release, map reading light. Dealer Options; Clarion 6-disc autochanger, Rallye carpet mats.

EXTERIOR
Every inch a drivers, car this limited edition Peugeot 306 Rallye is finished in solid Bianca White and the factory applied paint throughout is impeccable with a stunning glossy finish. Only 200 were finished in this striking colour making the deliciously retro Rallye decals contrast vibrantly, especially after being replaced due to slight fading with genuine items from Peugeot, such was the fastidious nature of the former enthusiast keeper. All green tint Sekurit glass has the Peugeot logo and along with all other trim, light clusters and rubbers are in perfect condition. Commensurate with the astonishingly low 309 miles covered the underside and wheel arch apertures are remarkable and worthy of any showmanship. A delectably de-frilled, lighter and rarer version of the 306 GTi-6 this Rallye is very special.

INTERIOR
Finished with Phoenix Cloth trim the sparse interior not only presents like a new car but still retains a familiar new car smell! With less sound deadening, no fog lights and no electric windows or mirrors, this stripped out hot hatch weighs just 1163kg, 52kg less than the GTi-6, and the primary focus is driver thrills. All gauges, controls and electrics function including the Clarion radio/cassette with optional 6-disc player installed in the boot. Genuine Peugeot Rallye floor mats are fitted, (the driver’s side with an additional carpet mat protecting the original), and a Peugeot seat cover is included. The boot area along with the rest of the car is untouched.

ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
It may have the allure but it really is the performance that is most impressive about the Peugeot 306 Rallye. The Gruff metallic exhaust howl from the XU 2.0 litre engine develops 167bhp, enough to sprint from 0-60mph in 7.8 seconds and on to a top speed of 137mph. The engine bay presents fabulously with every sticker, label and stamp factory correct. The factory oil filter is still wrapped in its paper wrapper but the car has had oil changes and a cambelt change. The 6-speed transmission and clutch action works precisely.

WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
Cyclone alloy wheels are unmarked and shod in factory specified Pirelli P6000 195/55 R15 tyres. These were changed due to flat spots on the originals but all four replacements were sourced at great expense and are correctly dated. The braking system features ABS with discs all-round to offer straight and strong stopping power.

HISTORY FILE
This limited edition Peugeot 306 Rallye is one of just 500 made and is the last one ever registered on the 12th May 2000. Well known to Peugeot enthusiasts and recognised by many car fanatics due to the numerous magazine features, all included in the history file. The cars initial future was uncertain after Peugeot UK repossessed an entire dealers stock and placed it all into storage at GEFCO UK Ltd in Corby where the cars stood unused for several years. When Peugeot announced the closure of its plant at Ryton, near Coventry, the cars were sold off and this particular example was purchased by John Mann on the 8th October 2007 who immediately advertised it on the Peugeot 306 GTi-6 & Rallye forum where is was snapped up by previous owner and 306 Rallye Registrar, Carl Chambers. Carl purchased the car with 97 miles on the clock and has owned it ever since. Rarely does it leave his side other than being trailered to Peugeot events, motor shows and even Peugeot UK has the car on display at their head office!

Supplied with all handbooks, brochures, spare keys and magazines featuring the car, this really is an unrepeatable opportunity and KGF Classic Cars are honoured to be a part of the cars history and helping it to secure a new appreciative owner.

EXTERIOR
This outstanding Peugeot 205 GTI 1.6 finished in original Alpine White, (Code P0WT), boasts incredible credentials with having just one owner from new. The fanatical dedication and the owner’s absolute adoration for the car is clearly evident in the stunning condition of this garaged example. The lightweight fragile panels are straight and free from the common dings and scuffs, and some light age-related markings are insignificant and more than appropriate for an untouched unrestored car. This early 1987 car displays correct Phase 1 features including the Siem driving lamps, round base door mirrors, rear spoiler with squared ends bonded to the rear screen and the fluted rear applique with Peugeot and 205 GTi badges correctly affixed left and right accordingly. Further originality is seen in the factory etched glass with all stickers and labels intact along with the Peugeot Talbot Sport front and rear stickers that have been fitted since new. This is an outstanding unmolested example and not the usual multi owner thrashed hothatch!

INTERIOR
Interior features for the Phase 1 cars are quite distinctive, namely the notably different dashboard featuring slider heating controls as well as the door cards in grey vinyl/red lower carpet which finish short of the window sill leaving a strip of exposed painted metal. The ribbed velour/cord upholstery is spotlessly clean and tight and all seat structure has retained correct shape and firmness. The bolster material to the driver’s seat has been professional retrimmed. All the clear sports dials show healthy readings and operate faultlessly, as do the push button switches and slider controls. The bright red carpeting, anthracite headlining and fully trimmed door cards are in excellent condition with even genuine Peugeot carpets mats being protected with further mats! The factory Philips PLL Quartz 553 radio cassette player with the standard four speaker system remain fitted and operational as does the digital clock. A wonderful period ‘hot hatch’ interior.

ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
The lively performance of the 1580cc XU5JA engine with correct Bosch L-Jetronic fuel injection produces 115BHP at 6250 rpm and 98.4 lb. Ft of torque. Performance credentials in a car weighing just 850kg are guaranteed to stir up excitement! The clean engine bay displays factory plates, stickers, inner wing stamp and scuttle lip chassis stamp as well as the black slam panel and paint code stencilled above the nearside headlamp remaining factory correct. The Scorpion alarm siren is placed where the jack is normally housed but the original jack is present. The five-speed gear box feels light and direct.

WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
The standard 12-hole centre-less Speedline SL201 5.5J x 14 alloy wheels are pristine and feature the correct diamond cut centre sections, a feature very often lost upon a compromised refurbishment. Michelin 185/60 HR14 tyres are fitted all round with plenty of tread and the spare wheel remains shod in the factory Michelin MXV tyre. Dual circuit hydraulic vacuum servo assisted brakes incorporates front vented discs with floating callipers and rear drums to match the performance dynamics perfectly.

HISTORY FILE
Registered on the 27th March 1987 by Peugeot Main Dealer, Poplar Garages of Billingshurst, this remarkable example was purchased new by Mr and Mrs Cockram. Registered in Mrs Cockram’s name, the car has remained in her ownership ever since with the V5 displaying zero former keepers. The colossal history file is simply incredible and thorough perusal of the massive history folder would consume hours! The original new car sales invoice is made out to Mrs Cockram and confirms £7,730.59 as the purchase price and is accompanied by welcome letters from the supplying dealer, Poplar Garages. All paperwork is neatly filed in chronological order and contains service and maintenance invoices dating back to when the car was new in 1987. The blue Peugeot A5 wallet containing all handbooks, guides and dealership point of sale literature is accompanied by the original service booklet fully stamped and with comprehensive hand written note recording in minute detail all work undertaken throughout the car’s lifetime. A documented service was carried out in April 2022 at 84,207 miles and the most recent cambelt change was done at 82,106 miles. The fanatical owners are Peugeot Sport Club members and viewed themselves effectively as custodians of the car and responsible for its preservation in every respect, even down to retaining original dealership paper floor mats, spare keys with fobs and Peugeot bulb kit, in addition to the huge vehicle history file. An unmissable opportunity to acquire a Peugeot 205 GTi that has been used, enjoyed, cared for and preserved exactly as it should be, this is a very special car.

EXTERIOR
A stylish design by Pininfarina, this Peugeot 405 GRI is finished in Peugeot Saxon Blue, (Code MOPJ), and is in superb order with a lovely uniform shine throughout thanks to the low 28,992 miles covered. The often ding prone body panels are remarkably straight with only light scratches and touched in markings commensurate with the vehicles age. All trim sections, lights and etched glass with factory labels are well preserved and the supplying Peugeot dealer rear screen sticker, tax disc holder and factory labels in the door apertures further uphold the originality. There is a small compression to the lower rear bumper skirt, quite unnoticeable. Classic chic lines from Peugeots design heyday to truly take your breath away!

INTERIOR
The sumptuous and immensely comfortable interior is typically ‘of the era’ from French manufacturers with large soft seats and plush upholstery. The spotless Feriane velour upholstery is virtually perfect thanks to the wonderfully low mileage and pampered care. The headlining and door cards are fully intact and the carpets have been protected from new by Peugeot rubber floor mats, as specified on the original sales invoice.

A spacious modern classic interior, brilliantly cared for and ready for retro family classic car outings.

ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
The four-cylinder 1998cc engine with multipoint fuel injection develops 123bhp and 179Nm of torque to offer spritely performance whilst achieving a very respectable top speed of 120mph and 0-62mph in 12.5 seconds. The engine is wonderfully quiet and smooth and a stark contrast to the XUD diesel but just as bombproof! The engine bay is very clean and displays factory stickers, plates and panel stampings across the slam panel as well as the strut-top paint code label. The 2.0 GRi model is perfectly suited to the four speed automatic transmission which operates perfectly and is surprisingly smooth for the era.

WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
The wheels remain fitted with the correct Peugeot full wheel covers which are in superb order with no kerb damage. Matching premium brand Uniroyal RainExpert 185/65 R14 tyres have masses of tread remaining. The twin circuit diagonally split braking system features discs all round, ventilated to front, to offer assured stopping power.

HISTORY FILE
The original consignment notice from PSA wholesale Ltd is in the history file and the car was supplied new on the 31st August 1993 by Peugeot Main Dealer, TFL Kensington. Destined to spend its entire life with the same family from new and so far, covering just 28,992 miles, the first owner was Mr Donald Fair who purchased the car at a pre-registered discount of 10% and negotiated free rubber mats and a service package. This is all detailed on the original sales invoice and handover checklist in the history file whereby the price paid was £13,151.18. Upon Mr Fair’s passing in 1996 the car passed to his wife, Mrs Marjorie Fair, who used the car sparingly until 2012 when she decided to cease using the car and have ownership transferred to her son, Christopher fair, who has owned it ever since!

The dealer supplied Peugeot wallet contains all handbooks, operating guides and point of sale literature, including even a Peugeot carrier bag and napkin! The original service record book is present contains stamped entries for the early years of the car. Furthermore, the history file contains invoices and receipts whereby in recent years the car was serviced and maintained by the same independent specialist. A documented cambelt change was carried out in October 2018 at 26,518 miles and a service has just been carried out in January 2021. Completing the history file is the original Peugeot 405 sales brochure used by Mr Fair when he purchased the car, complete with his notes. Mr Fair even kept a ‘What Car’? magazine article from 1993 whereby the Peugeot 405 was compared against the Ford Mondeo, Mazda 626, Nissan Primera, Rover 416, Toyota Carina E, Vauxhall Cavalier and Volkswagen Vento. ‘What Car?’ awarded the Peugeot top of its class! This low mileage and very capable 405 drives superb and, as per the famous television advert, is perfect for evading spontaneously erupting maize fields!

This early Phase 1 Peugeot 309 GE is finished in the deliciously retro colour of Antelope Beige, (Code EDW), a colour more often seen on older models such as the 305 and 505. Having covered just 16,437 miles from new, the factory panels and paintwork are simply remarkable and all panel edges and seams are pin sharp. The lightweight panels are completely free from the usual dings and the paintwork boasts a wonderful uniform shine with only very minimal markings and touch ups. The underside is preserved incredibly well and even the exhaust still has labels intact! Factory Peugeot Saint Gobain and Triplex glass and supplying dealership number plates further uphold the originality and all lightweight trim is fully intact and damage free. A preserved early base model example now otherwise virtually extinct.

INTERIOR
This delightfully 1980’s interior is typically French with an abundance of lightweight plastics whilst offering surprising levels of comfort. A far simpler era of motoring is evident with sparse levels of equipment and a super thin steering wheel that still displays factory prominent veins, found only on the lowest mileage examples. Entirely commensurate of the 16,437 miles covered, the beige Diamond Cloth seat trim is in remarkable condition and spotlessly clean. All trims sections are in superb order with no cracks or damage, and all equipment operates perfectly including the Philips AN232 pre-selection radio. Reminiscent of a 1987 Peugeot Talbot showroom car, this certainly is no ordinary 309.

ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
Fabulous, fun and spirited, the early 309 base model cars were intended to be badged as a Talbot Arizona and as such were fitted with chain driven Simca derived engines. This particular GE model uses the 1294cc G1A four-cylinder unit developing 65bhp and 103Nm of torque to achieve a respectable top speed of 98mph and 0-62mph in 15.4 seconds. The engine bay is remarkable and displays factory stickers and plates as well as VIN inner wing stamping. Even the factory hand applied air box cover sign-off is still clearly visible! The 5-speed gearbox is light with a positive clutch action.

WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
The simple steel wheels have had a light refurbishment and still wear the factory centre caps which are in very good order. Originality seekers will be pleased to see the factory Goodyear Grand Prix S 145 R13 tyres still fitted, which whilst retaining plenty of tread, renewal is recommended due to age. Split circuit servo-assisted brakes incorporating front discs and rear drums offer assured stopping power.

HISTORY FILE
Built at the Ryton Plant in Coventry and supplied by Peugeot Main Dealers, Tom Garner Motors of Manchester, first registration was on the 20th March 1987. The first owner, Mr Bernard Reynolds, is named on the original purchase invoice with a price paid of £5,700 less £400 part exchange allowance for his 1979 Talbot Avenger LS! Used sparingly following his retirement, Mr Reynolds kept the car for 28 years. This Peugeot was always garaged and has covered a remarkably low 16,437 miles from new with MOT certificates in the history file dating back to the very first in 1990 to verify the low mileage. All the handbooks contained in the blue Peugeot Talbot A5 folder remain with the car including the service book. In 2015 the car was purchased by a private collector whose eclectic fleet includes 20 plus cars from the 1970’s and 1980’s, all exceptionally low mileage and all humble everyday classics from yesteryear.

Clearly keen on advertising awareness, the Tom Garner Motors branding is found on the floor mats, number plates, keyring and even the original sales brochure which features their dealer stamp and would have been used by Mr Reynolds when he purchased the car almost 33 years ago! Beautifully preserved with wonderful credentials, an unmissable opportunity for the collector and avid Peugeot enthusiast, and perfect as a starter classic.

Ownership subsequently transferred to good friend and long-term custodian, Mr John Hodge, who kept the car for almost 30 years before selling to renowned vehicle collector, Mr Wesley Shah of Perth, Scotland in 2004. Here, it formed part of an amazing collection including a rare Peugeot 203 Convertible before being sold to Dr Nicholas John Bell in 2010. Dr Bell enjoyed the car immensely covering 10,000 miles of the 36,055 indicated. The final drive was following the Mille Miglia where the car performed faultlessly and received much admiration.

The history file includes the original Peugeot wallet containing the 404 Convertible Petrol Injection instruction book, service centre guide and the original stamped service booklet. Furthermore, the history file holds letters and notes between owners, detailing the cars history and even an old photograph in the original colour of silver. There are many invoices, and receipts as well as previous MOT certificates and workshop manuals. Needless to say, this truly elegant and stunning classic Peugeot is an extremely rare find, even more so in RHD. An amazing addition to even the best car collections.

This polished 205 CTI is finished in Azurro Blue Metallic, (Code EMC) and has a beautiful smooth gloss finish. The simplicity and purity of the design is amplified in this chic colour which attracts much attention.

The factory tinted glass still has security stickers attached and is number plate etched. The original snug fitting black hood is quick and easy to operate and owing to heated garage storage from new remains in excellent undamaged condition with a zipped clear plastic rear screen and tonneau.

INTERIOR
Benefiting from the later model interior revisions, this genuine example looks amazing. The Quartet velour seat trim in black and red offers hip hugging support. All the clear sports dials operate faultlessly as do the push button switches. The sports red carpeting is vibrant and spotlessly clean and unique features such as the red stitching on the leather gear gaiter are clear to see. A period immobiliser is fitted and the correct Peugeot Clarion cassette stereo tuner with code card is in situ. An iconic interior exactly as the manufacturer intended.

ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
This model is fitted with the newer XU5JA 1.6 litre engine so produces 115BHP at 6250 rpm which equates to a top speed of 121.7mph and 0-62mph in 9.1 seconds.

WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
Instantly recognisable Speedline SL201 alloy wheels are unmarked and display manufacturer markings clearly. The centred chrome polish finish is slightly tarnished and the wheels are shod in branded 185/60 R14 tyres. Servo assisted front vented brake discs with floating calipers and rear drum brakes with a pressure limiting valve to avoid premature locking provides an effective braking system.

HISTORY FILE
Registered new as a demonstrator on the 24th October 1990 by Peugeot Main Dealers, Warwick Wright Motors, it became the first and only other private owners pride and joy on the 1st April 1991. Mr Vernon Slaney was absolutely fastidious in the upkeep of the car with a memo book revealing every oil change using only premium Castrol GTX. These oil changes were carried out annually, the last being on the 15th March 2016 at 54,672 miles. The memo book even documents dates of tyre pressure checks and the PSI readings! To supplement this extraordinary home care, visits to the Peugeot Main Dealer, mainly Evans Halshaw in Mansfield, for larger jobs such as timing belt changes were carried out with invoices included in the history file. All handbooks, owner guides, pamphlets and business cards are contained in the black Peugeot A5 wallet. A period sales brochure and spare keys are also included.
A wonderful opportunity to experience 205 CTI wind in the hair fun with an increasingly difficult to find original example.
