It looks like the threads are destroyed.... are you sure the top part isn't actually part of the shifter shaft?
You might have to cut the lower piece off.

It appears the shift **** when it broke off exposed the top part of the shifter shaft but I could be wrong...
You could try a pipe wrench on the collar...

Take some vice grips to whats left of the shifter ***** inner sleeve, see if you can get it to loosen. You might want to turn the lock nut away from it just a tad.
Lefty loosey... righty tighty.

Yes, the original **** unscrews, then you tighten that lower nut up to it to lock it in position.

Pull the boot off, you'll see a silver "cup".. you press this down and turn to unlock the shifter from it's rest. Keep it in neutral doing this.
Get another shifter and reinstall. I'm not sure if a Peugot shifter is identical to the AX-15's.. which is what you have in your 96.
