Peugeot 302 1938

The 1938 Peugeot 302 is a beautiful example of the interbellum, a time when the French automotive industry was driven by elegance and innovative technology. The Peugeot brand, with a history dating back to the 19th century, has always had a strong reputation for refined design and technical progress. The 302 was introduced in the late 1930s and was known for its aerodynamic lines, inspired by the streamlining trend that was popular at the time. This influence is clearly visible in the streamlined front and the beautiful integrated headlights behind the grille – a detail that was far ahead of its time.

This particular Peugeot 302 has been registered on Dutch plates since 1981 and comes from a private collection, which adds to its exclusivity. The car was put away in running condition a long time ago, but has not seen the road since. This means that maintenance will be required before this 302 can hit the road again. However, it is impressive that the car has managed to retain its original details in that period, including the interior that still exudes the charm and craftsmanship of the thirties.

The 302 was powered by a 1,758 cc four-cylinder engine, which despite its modest performance still impressed with its smooth driving behaviour and reliability. Peugeot built its reputation partly on models like this, which offered both comfort and solidity to their drivers. The car was designed for long journeys through the French countryside, with its smooth-running suspension and reliable drivetrain.

Exempt from road tax and MOT, this Peugeot is an attractive possession for the enthusiast who values ​​originality and historical heritage. The retention of many original details makes it possible to experience a pure driving experience as it was intended in the thirties. Although there is work to be done to get this classic back on the road, the future owner will be rewarded with a unique driving experience and an unmistakable eye-catcher, full of nostalgia and French flair.
