The Car That Started It All
The 1937 Peugeot holds a special place in the museum’s history. In 1957, Olivier Cerf’s father, Alain Cerf, purchased it at a police auction in Paris. Initially bought as a practical vehicle due to financial constraints, its sentimental value has grown over the years, making it priceless to the Cerf family.
