Produced from 1939 to 1958, Peugeot's Triporteur commercial delivery tricycle was a familiar sight in and around Paris and other French towns and cities. These utilitarian machines represented affordable transport for farmers and tradesmen, and helped the French economy get back on its feet after the war. The concept was simple: the front wheel and forks of one of Peugeot's motorcycles being replaced with a single-axle chassis frame supporting a large box. The first such Triporteur was the 100cc TN53, based on the Type 53 lightweight motorcycle. The successor TN54 was introduced shortly after the end of WW2, while the 125cc TN55 appeared in 1949 boasting greater power and an increased payload of 150kg (330lb). Peugeot's advertising claimed a top speed of 28mph and a fuel consumption of around 90 miles per gallon for the TN55. The revised TN57 of 1954 was the last of the series.
The vendor's neighbour bought this Triporteur in France ten years ago and took it to the USA before bringing it to the UK around six years ago. The vendor bought it from his neighbour earlier this year. One of only a handful in the UK, this charming Gallic curiosity is offered with cancelled French registration papers and Vehicle Transfer Declaration, and will have been through the NOVA process by time of sale.
