What were Peugeot's touring models?

Other than the UE-8/18. The only one I know of is the late 80's Savoie (beautiful bike!), which I believe was UK specific. What were the others over the years?

Vagabond? Ux14 or some such number.

PX60 in the Euro market. Never seen one stateside.

I'm seeing this model pop up lately on Kijiji.
I can't make out the model. But it looks like a decent, robust

touring rig.

The pictured grey bike may have been one of the Canadian Peugeot models. I sold Peugeots for a number of years and don't remember them every having a'Touring' model a la 15 to 18 speeds, cantilever brakes, long wheelbase, etc. Probably the closest was a 70's model with Mafac brakes, fenders, built in generator, but still 10 to 12 speeds.

Is it possible that gray bike is a drop bar conversion of an MTB? I can’t tell the wheel size from the pic, but the frame looks MTBish.

It's a 700c touring bike. I found the model a while back but forgot how I found it. It looked to be a really sturdy bike with all kinds of mounts found for an expedition touring bike. If I'm not mistakened, that grey bike is listed for $150 CAD, but it's too far for me to check it out.

I wonder how it rides compared to other touring bikes of that 90s era.

PL-50, pretty touristy

Not seen that often but imported to North America, material quality similar to the U08. This one from a 1968 catalog

The nicest would be the PX-60. Fellow member Dawes-man has a really nice one. It is featured here.
