1988 Peugeot 505 gtdt review from UK and Ireland
"Non posers dream"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear suspension needed welding plus crack in wheel arch both factory faults.
General comments?
This in my opinion is the best 1980s car on the road with its fine 2.5 td 95bhp unstressed engine
nice crisp styling that first appeared in 1979 without computer aided design
this is what you call a car and still not burning a drop of oil and heading for 281000 miles.
