What i loved most about the 04 was the vacuum the trunk provided for rear speakers. Throw in your pioneer speakers and you had yourself a massive woofer. smiley *memories* grin

I remember the brands PGT 504 L, GL, GR, SR, 2000.
CollinsWeGlobe:
Fifty years ago a car was launched that heralded the birth of the stylish, high quality cars that Peugeot is famous for today.
The Peugeot 504 is a mid-size, front-engine, rear wheel drive automobile manufactured and marketed by Peugeot for model years 1968-1983 over a single generation, primarily in four-door sedan and wagon configurations — but also with two-door coupe, convertible and pickup truck variants.

The 504 was noted for its robust body structure, long suspension travel, and torque tube drive shaft — enclosed in a rigid tube attached at each end to the gearbox housing and differential casing, relieving drive train torque reactions. The 504 ultimately achieved widespread popularity in far-flung rough-terrain countries — including Brazil, Argentina, Australia, Ivory Coast, Ghana, Cameroon, Benin, Kenya and Nigeria.

More than three million 504s were manufactured in its European production, with production continuing globally under various licensing arrangements — including 27,000 assembled in Kenya and 425,000 assembled in Nigeria, using knock-down kits — with production extending into 2006.

Having debuted as Peugeot's flagship at the 1968 Paris Salon, the 504 received the 1969 European Car of the Year. In 2013, the LA Times called it "Africa's workhorse.

Happy birthday #Peugeot504

That was when 504s were like SUVs.

So respect the histories.

Throwback:
"For stealing money ($5.1m) that cannot buy Peugeot, Buhari regime jailed Nwobodo. Is that fair enough?"

-Jonathan


The inglorious words of a confirmed ineffectual buffoon that was campaigning for reelection.

Throwback, you just want to spoil this beautiful history with your politics right? Please go to the politics and fight with your fellow politicians. Haba?

This car once saved my life, I remember when I was a child, we were living in a storey building, I stood at the balcony one afternoon and climb the railings of the balcony then I lost my grip and fell over the railings at the balcony and landed on the 504 parked below the balcony, No fracture sustained, just a little scratch on my skin, I thank God I didn't land on the ground.

whenever I happen to see a Peugeot 504 it always brings my late dad to mind... because that was the car he drove as far back as I could remember ..among some of my most enduring memories about him is when my sisters and I rush out to greet him when he comes home from work, as soon as we hear him horn.. ...Daddy I miss you

The only car with a left hand ignition! Legend.

I have always felt that the left hand ignition is inadvisable for security reasons. They keys could easily be removed by someone from outside the car.
