Can anyone identify this car?

Hi

I'm trying to date the attached photo of Hastings seafront.

I think the car circled might be a Peugeot?

Can anyone help with the model and year? Please forgive if it's not a Peugeot!



Many Thanks to Peugeot experts

I'd put my money on a 504 saloon myself

See further down for the pic of the saloon version

Failing that i'm pretty certain it is one of the '04 models, check the model timeline at bottom of wiki page

It's a 504 saloon ('69 on in the UK), parked in front of a moggie, parked in front of a Vanden Plas 1100/1300, parked in front of a Wolsely 1500 (not 100% on that one) parked in front of a MKIII cortina (late '72 on?), in front of an unidentifiable blob. best guess is the pic is post 73, maybe later still looking at the style of the bollard on the traffic island. Old Brit iron was a very common sight well into the '80s, then someone did a wet fart and it all rusted away overnight.

Thanks gentlemen. I think the Cortina which can be seen with the eye of faith is very diagnostic. The year is 1973 to 1976, I believe.

Thanks again
