1982 Peugeot 505 S Turbo Diesel Sedan

Offered here with NO RESERVE is a wonderful 1982 Peugeot 505S Turbo Diesel. These were the first 4-cylinder Turbo Diesels in America. The exterior is a crisp Champagne Beige Metallic. The paint is shiny and free of damage. This vehicle looks very sharp for a thirty three year-old vehicle. There are very few signs of every day wear on this vehicle. I am not sure what the S model means but I think it stands for suspension or Sport. because this car is a pleasure to drive. both in handling and ride. The interior has a lot of comfort and safety features. There are power windows and locks. and a power sunroof. There is even a Sony AM/FM cassette stereo with a removable face. The air conditioning works. as it should. and has been converted to 134a. Not only is this Peugeot a pleasure to drive. it’s a pleasure to ride in as well. The interior is a wonderful kind of a soft cushiony Tan cloth and is very comfortable and very clean. I have owned this car about 14 years. and it has never been wet since I've owned it. I have never washed it. The car has always keep under a car cover in a garage. if it got dusty I would just wax it clean. I have only logged 750 miles since 2001. Last year the injection pump developed a small leak. so it has been rebuilt. I have a friend who has been in the business of rebuilding injection pumps for many years. After the rebuild I watched as he spent at least an hour meticulously tuning it on a test bench. When reinstalled on the car I could not believe it was the same car. It seems like the car has so much more horsepower. it was a dog before now she runs a bear. That's the Bright side of the story. Now the dark side. A rust bubble has appeared in the paint on the dog leg near the rear door. And Now the real dark side. Because I have not driven it enough the brake calipers are sticking. Recently I installed one new caliper on the front that was sticking the most. but some others are hanging up. The car can be driven. but only a short distance before the brakes start to overheat. They may be able to be exercised back into working condition but I just don't have the time. I have decided I have reached an age that I don't need try to keep a couple dozen vehicles running. Always feeding batteries. brakes and mufflers etc. and I am losing some storage space. So it will be sold to the Winning Bidder regardless of price. Please remember this is a NO RESERVE Auction. Remember when bidding on this car can not be driven away because of the sticky brakes and must be picked up on a trailer or flat bed. Shipping is the Buyer's responsibility but I will gladly help out with the logistics. this car can be shipped world wide as I can deliver the car to Port Newark. N. J.
