1989 Peugeot 505 GR review from UK and Ireland
"Superb!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Corroded radiator - critical failure.
Replaced the carburettor with new.
General comments?
Excellent vehicle. Why won't manufacturers make good workhorses like these any more? They are tough and reliable, I put 8 people, the biggest roof box and second roof rack on and can still travel at a good speed in all conditions.
Well done Peugeot!
