1991 Peugeot 205 Color Line review from Portugal

What things have gone wrong with the car?

One rear shock absorber "died" with 40.000 km.

Problems with some overheating, changed the temperature valve and the thermostat, got better, but not enough.

Problems with the brakes as well.

General comments?

Very easy to drive, very comfortable, especially on rough roads, economical but not very reliable.

As I say, what more could you expect from a 1.1L engine??
