Hi fellow Peugeot lovers!
I made a rookie mistake a couple of weeks ago and I thought I would join this site to see if any of you guys would be interested in helping me out.
I was born and raised in England and absolutely love the 505 platform. I've had a few of them, wagons and sedans. And have wanted one here for a long time.. I found a beautiful one on Craigslist locally which apparently only needed a new fuel pump.
It was cheap enough so I jumped on it when I saw it, because body and interior wise it's in excellent condition for the age.
Long story short it had been garage stored for 5 years and the bloody motor is totally locked up from sitting.. I'm not that good of a mechanic to be able to work on that, so I'm just going to sell the car..
It's a 83 505 S Wagon with the turbo diesel motor. It's in exceptionally good shape inside and only has 90k miles. Everything seems to work apart from the motor.
The body has minor dings and scratches, but it's actually very clean. And hardly any rust.
I have a clean title, but no key. I had to jimmy the ignition to get it to light up..
Ideally I'd like to get my money back out of it. It would be a very valuable car if the engine was repaired, as it's just such a nice one.
Let me know if anyone is interested.
Thanks,
Nathan
