norcal505 Posted August 8, 2011 Report Posted August 8, 2011 Oh, oui oui. C'est magnifique monsieur Quote
N9TE Posted August 9, 2011 Author Report Posted August 9, 2011 Heh, thanks! But it's no where near my anal standards. Had it not been an 89, I would have probably passed on the car, but it's an 89, so I was more or less had to. Quote
505T Posted August 9, 2011 Report Posted August 9, 2011 Pics not working...is it just for me or anyone else....? Quote
Bean Posted August 9, 2011 Report Posted August 9, 2011 Me too... Links appear fine, might be an issue on the host site as the direct links from the notification don't work either. Rabin Quote
norcal505 Posted August 9, 2011 Report Posted August 9, 2011 I saw them... Also, Koll, do you plan an reinstalling the side trim? IMO looks good eitherway... Quote
505T Posted August 9, 2011 Report Posted August 9, 2011 Wow, that is noice! Really happy for you mate, take good care of her! Quote
Peugeottogo Posted August 9, 2011 Report Posted August 9, 2011 Koll, great to see this car in the hands of an enthusiast! Hope you did well with the sale price too. Did Marek and Renata keep the 89 V6? seriously considered it but I think they were going to keep if the turbo sold. Looks like another build thread for this one, very cool! Quote
andrethx Posted August 9, 2011 Report Posted August 9, 2011 nice. those red interiors are beautiful. looking forward to seeing this car get koll-ized. andre Quote
Bean Posted August 9, 2011 Report Posted August 9, 2011 I'm personally not lovin' the two tone interior... I'd prefer solid red, or solid Grey. If it were me I think a switch to solid dark grey leather interior would be the way to go (and easier to source). Car has TONS of potential though, and it's definitely in the right hands to get properly fully sorted. Super cool to have 3 of these uber rare cars in the hands of members. Now Koll and I have to head to Carlisle to meet Steffen so there's three 89's in one place at the same time. If only we could find this Keith West dude, and he still has both his we'd be laughin'...

Guest broke Posted August 10, 2011 Report Posted August 10, 2011 Son of a gun.............. you beat me to it n9te. I was supposed to fly there and take a look at her............. lol...........next time I and congrats. Quote
N9TE Posted August 10, 2011 Author Report Posted August 10, 2011 Ah, not to worry. I'm sure a car or two will show up before long. It always seems to go in bunches like this. First Nick's dad with his mint 86, this this 89. What part of Canada are you in? Quote
norcal505 Posted August 10, 2011 Report Posted August 10, 2011 Canada?! Broke check ebay motors immediately! Quote
Bean Posted August 10, 2011 Report Posted August 10, 2011 Canada?! Broke check ebay motors immediately! I think Rob might mean this 505 Turbo in Granum AB: Alberta 505 Turbo Could probably be had cheap - but it's a project for sure. 1400 kms round trip means travel costs would double the price so I just expressed interest in some parts off the parts car if he was parting it out. There's also the 205 in Kelowna as well that's been for sale for seemingly years. It's tempting - but they must want too much for it, or something's up cause it's been up for sale for a long time.

ohms Posted August 10, 2011 Report Posted August 10, 2011 awesome that car wound up in good hands, i had been emailing with Renata about it for a bit, trying to help her get the word out more about the car. did you get to see the stx automatic they have? and damn straight youre putting euros on that one - will make it so much more perfect Quote
Guest broke Posted August 11, 2011 Report Posted August 11, 2011 I live in Montreal quebec, I own an 85 turbo gas 5 speed but I wish to acquire a 89 with the red interior. Quote
Bean Posted August 11, 2011 Report Posted August 11, 2011 Darn - I was in Montreal for the F1 this past June. Had I known we could met up. Are you on the French 505 forum at all? Rabin Quote
Guest broke Posted August 11, 2011 Report Posted August 11, 2011 Was and they have problems acquiring parts also.......... Quote
