Why it matters
The 410 had a smoother, more curved body than the earlier 408 and 409 and a new, more complex braking-circuit layout, which the marque presented as its safest yet. It was the first model fitted as standard with 15-inch wheels.
How rare is it?

06Reference
Identification guide
How to tell an original from a replica or later conversion.
Production bodies carry linked tramline trims on the flanks, running from front to rear. The outer lamps are partly faired into the body, not on a flat panel as on the 408 and 409. The gear-shift lever is set centrally into the floor pan.
