The J9 was available in numerous versions. Almost any conversion or construction was possible. From minibus, livestock truck, food truck, camper, aerial work platform, tipper to even a mobile office. That also made the J9 attractive to other body builders. They were able to supply special versions, with a factory warranty. One could buy a completely bare “Chassis Cabin” on which special conversions and superstructures could be placed. The Chassis Cab was supplied from the factory with metal reinforcements to transport the car from the factory to the body builder.

The production period of the J9 was very long for such a commercial vehicle. From its launch in 1981, the J9 was available in Europe until 1991, with a total of 245,057 vehicles rolled off the production line. The Turkish manufacturer Karzan produced the J9 under license from 1981 to 2010.

This Peugeot J9 car transporter is equipped with a Heuliez structure with an electric winch. The J9 has a gross vehicle weight of 3.500 kg and a payload of 1.500 kg. The Peugeot is from 1989 and imported from France to the Netherlands in 2022.

The Peugeot Talbot Sport Team livery looks great, and is much more fun than a modern platform!
