Peugeots are generally expensive to repair and parts mainly due to the fact this is not a big peugeot market. The car seems fine with the description you mentioned, and I would not pay more than 20k for that.

Just make sure you take it to some good mechanic or even peugeot itself before buying. A few hundred spent here could save you a lot if there are surprises which require major repairs. If it has FSH, then you can probably call the agency and get a drill-down of its condition by giving them its number plate. Many times they have all this information already in their computers.

Check also tires..these alone can cost you around 2k more to get new ones if they are worn out.
