This car reminds me when I was still a little kid. My late dad had this Peugeot 505 back in 1978, and this car was the first one I learned to drive in 1983 when I was still 15. And guess what, I still keep this car with me, still in pretty good condition.

I had a 505 SR new in 1987 with the 7 seat version. I had the optional GTi alloy wheels and a Blaupunkt radio cassette player. I was the envy of many as I unloaded three of my son’s band members, a complete drum kit, guitars, amps, stands etc. Happy memories, thank you!

@@alcalatechnology I'm from Indonesia, and I had one in 1988 when I was still at university, namely a 1981 Peugeot 505 GR manual transmission, production number 80, I know exactly what's on the bottom, especially the middle exhaust which often has holes due to rust. I memorize the engine parts because it still uses a carburetor. The temperature problem of Peugeot cars always haunts all Peugeot car owners in Indonesia, because in Indonesia the temperature is tropical so the temperature in the radiator is often problematic, finally I found a solution, namely, replacing the extra fan with a BOSCH brand Merchedez fan with 13 fan blades, so that more air is emitted. faster and cooler to the radiator, the results are quite successful but it is a bit noisy because the fan sound is a bit loud. And another problem is that the clutch pedal is very hard to press, so if you have a Peugeot you should choose an automatic transmission so you don't complain about the clutch pedal when the roads are busy and jammed.

The Peugeot 505 is one of a Kind. My Grandad had a Red Estate one and used it as a delivery car for his Flower shop. It Covered almost 300,000 Miles over 30 Years with very little issues and now i have it in a Garage. They are still being used today as Bush Taxis in Africa due to there durability and having High ground clearance and Available in 7 Seats also with a 3rd row as an option. Peugeot dont make cars like this anymore.

Finally somebody that doesnt do a porsche, merc, quatro. Kudo's!! Wish Alcala was closer, i'd have them do my 505. Only comment i'd have: Why pick the wildly expensive TRX wheels/tires when 15 inch look-a-likes are much cheaper to get tires for? Also, I don't like the black center caps.

[@emilefouquet9005]

Of all the different Peugeot Models from 1960's the 505 did not have anything to boast about other than its contemporary body design. The 505 Turbo Diesel was not too bad, however there weren't any examples to be found that had in excess of 100k Miles. The 505 D was dangerous to drive with 4 occupants due to its pathetic Low Power. Their 505 Turbo S was only available in the color Black and 5 Speed Manual Transmission. It was a total failure in the US mainly due to the morons that were running Peugeot Motors of America. The vehicle performance was from mediocre to poor, and not competitive with BMW, Saab, Volvo or Volkswagen. Shouldn't waste any time or money on this junk, but I would on any Citroen Model from 1939 to 1974. To date, a Citroen DS21 Pallas was the best motor vehicle ever produced. Do some homework to learn why.

[@alcalatechnology]

Shame you do not like the car, very car and customer have his thoughts about.. but I hope you liked the process!

[@emilefouquet9005]

@@alcalatechnology It's shame that you do like it. Do you know what is the criteria used to determine the quality of any automobile ? You obviously do not, such as 85% of the motoring public. Appearance is subjective. There are numerous vintage vehicles worth restoring or duplicating, any Peugeot 505 or 604 is not one of them. To love a motor vehicle for sentimental or childhood memories does not make it 'any good'.
