I don't know any specifics, but those Peugeot city bikes are cool. Must not be particularly heavy, too. With some new fenders, it'll be styling. Try these: https://www.velo-orange.com/veor46smfe.html

'83 or '84 PH40
'84 is listed as Burgundy only but its pictured in blue. Based on the SA date code it could be either an '83 or '84. Whats the paper sticker sya on the BB or nearby on the seatstay? Is there a stamped serial number on the BB or rear dropout?

Nice bike!
103 was Peugeots Basic steel in the late 70's up untill the mid 80's. Even though it's not a high end frame, old Peugeots ride really nice!
I forgot I posted that,

The pic in the link is an '83 model. There appears to be subtle difference in the blues. When you get the numbers post them as they appear including spaces.

Yes, Miamijim is absolutely right. Try to find a small type written paper label somewhere beneath the bottom bracket. It should look something like the one in this attachment. They can tell you a great deal about the bike. Unfortunately, they often peeled off over the years.

Love is spread thin with Peugeot serial numbers.
model: PH40
color?? M
Size: 54 cm
sequential model number: 2788663
FRAME serail number: Y303 15018 I believe Y303 is a frame code and 15018 is the sequential number for the frame not the bike. Still working on that theory..
