SOLVED: si_107 - Peugeot - 250-Twin - 1956

This elegant motorbike could surely afford nearly everyone. Who built it and when, how much engine capacity did it have?
You can get one point therefore.

'Guiller' made some motorcycles with pressed sheet-steel-frame,..  (..or are there only body parts for paneling a usual tube frame..)?

No connection to Guiller and I think there is a cladded tubular frame.

Locked for you. Peugeot is correct, also the series. But my source is a picture in a magazine article from a fair. The report is older and it speaks of lower displacement.

I think this information is worth a point, thanks for the copies. My source is from 1956 and speaks of 200cc. But I think that it is a mistake in the report or Peugeot presented a prototype. The design, especially the tank and exhaust manifold, looks 1:1 like the 256 TB and I have found no reference to a 206 TB anywhere.

Thank you for the point again. Tried to search in my library to find something about a Peugeot 200ccm-motorbike from 1956. Have only found a brochure of the 'Salon Brussels 1956', where this Peugeot-bike hasn't been featured.
Attached two more copies of the 256/356TB from 1957 and 1958
