"do not lay flat". Useful advice for a cyclist, I'd say.

To my best knowledge the 753 chorus wasn't sold in the UK and had the part chrome rear stays. In 91 Peugeot were using reynolds 708 for the UK market ( rifled frame tubes similar to columbus slx ) as the top spec lugged steel frames. Cycles Peugeot UK only offered what they thought would sell in the UK and High end bikes had to be heavily discounted in the late 80's onwards. In the early 90's Peugeot were using up their stocks of 531 tubing and winding down steel frame production as aluminium became more popular , at this time they put out quite a few models with 531 main triangle only. As for the decal who is to say Jacksons put it on.
If anyone can find a UK '91 model with 753 tubing then I will be happy to have learned something but I don't think you will.

I have a Peugeot 753 Chorus that I purchased in either 1990 or 1991. It came with a full Campagnolo Chorus groupset along with Mavic wheels and Look pedals and if I remember correctly it cost about £1,200. It is in excellent condition, has only done about 1,000 miles and has been kept in a garage. I tool it out for a short run last year and although it went really well it was a bit too fast for a 75 year old! If anyone is interested in it make me an offer I can't refuse. It is a 64 cm frame and I live in Dorset. I will attach a picture.
