Peugeot / What model?

What's up guys, first of all let me introduce myself
Pardon my english if I fail to express myself in any way:

My name is Chris, I'm 23 and I live and study in northern Germany. I was a fan of bicycles for as long as I can remember and recently, I've been into Classic & Vintage.

So first, I went and bought myself a Hercules. Just a nice bike for the plain streets of Hannover... Really comfy, awesome looks and smooth driving.

But then I had this itch (for about 2 years now) and I wanted to buy a vintage racing bicycle with the strange steering wheel that looks like a Ram's horn and what not (Mind you, I'm not an expert cyclist, don't want to offend anybody lol)

So I saw this beautiful Peugeot in a local auction and by the looks of it, it was an original (Even had the Serial Number on the bottom part of the frame). There were a LOT of aftermarket pieces that I hated but I said F** it I'll bid on it and I won it. Paid $60 for it. My plan is to restore it and get rid of all the cheap parts that the previous owner(s) installed and leave it looking like new.

But now I'm trying to see what and who my new baby really is and I'm worried I got ripped off... Yes, I tried Cyclespeugot, bikeboompeugeot (Retropeugot) and other sites but none of them seem to hit the chord.

Serial Nr. Y103 274 15 and it's got a sticker as well that reads: P41S, then NDE60MG and the Serial: 510083110732

Below some pictures (I'm really sorry for the bad quality)

What do you think? Did I get ripped off?
