1983 Peugeot 505 GR Estate (wagon) review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Little ancillary items such as distributor, alternator, fuel pump and radiator.
General comments?
The major mechanicals seem to be solid. At 164,000 miles I still have all the original major mechanicals (even the clutch).
Fantastically practical workhorse.
Rust can be a problem with these early models.
