Austin_TX_Peugeot Posted January 4, 2015 Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 Acquired a new project now selling one….only allowed one garage space. 1985 Peugeot 505 STI Turbo Diesel 105,xxx miles – and counting. It is my current daily driver. Runs great and doesn’t burn/leak oil. The winter so far has been to low 30’s and starts easy on first try. My commute is a mix of stop-n-go and I am averaging 23 mpg. The A/C works and I believe is R-12 doesn’t appear to have been converted going by the fittings. Acquired from a gentleman that had stopped driving it after a power steering rack issue and was going to use the engine for a sailboat. Had been sitting for a few years so I have replaced the following laundry list of items: Front and rear rotors Front inner and outer bearings Front and rear brake pads Rebuilt rear calipers Master cylinder 4 tires 4 glow plugs All belts Transmission cooler lines Fuel filter/water separator Rebuilt power steering rack Tie rod ends Ball joint Alignment New paint – not a custom job but looks decent Oil and oil filter Transmission oil and filter Rear differential oil change The following items I haven’t addressed: Sunroof does not open, but does not leak. Two rear electric windows not working Passenger window is slow No spare rim – have a tire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bean Posted January 4, 2015 Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 Beautiful car! I hope you find a buyer that appeciates the work and condition of the car as it is well worth the money. Out of curiousity - may I ask what the new project is? Your email addy decribes my 06' V70R nicely. Rabin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
