i have a 1989 peugout 505 stationwagon. please do not snicker. this is my 5th peugout 505 stationwagon. i have found them to be the best handling, best balanced stationwagon i have ever driven. i live in the northeast where the peugout import distribution was located. though peugouts started importing cars into the usa in the early 1960s, they ended that relationship in 1991. few folks wanted a peugout before 1991, no one wanted one after 1991. no one except me. which i why i could afford to buy a $25k when mercedes were selling for that price and i was only spending nickels to dollars. i would get a peug with 50k miles take it up to 125k and then get another 50k car. i have been doing this since 1990. i lived in an area where there was actually four peugout dealers in a 20 mile radius. one by one they moved onto other brands. and just last month, my favorite mechanic said he was retiring. sadly, this is my last peugout.
ebay motors sells a peugout in my area approx once a month. i'm not expecting much. in fact, i'm hoping someone who knows peugouts would appreciate my current wagon, 82k miles, no trouble passing inspection, 4 very good performance tires, 4 blizzack snow tires on steel wheels, 18mpg/city - 23mpg/hiway. this peug is great and i rather not drive her to a junkyard.
so, i'm looking for real world ebay motor experiences. have u bought? have u sold? care to share your tale?
thanks in advance to those who have some thoughts to offer.
and thank u to those who did not snicker when i mentioned that i proudly own a peugout!
be well
