I'm sure we had them, not too many though, and the tinworm took them off the roads in short order.

What was the diesel like in them i heard stories of them being a pig to start, are they an XUD.
Back from the day when peugeot made cars with a reputation for being tough, did all our uk versions rust or get shipped to africa.
That interior is beautiful, back in its day the 604 must have been quite a desirable enough car, i cant imagine as many cars back in its day being as plush as that especially not a diesel.

A bit? :shock: picture 4 men smacking the side of the engine block with lump hammers and you're almost there :lol:

I think the 2.3d had a whopping 70bhp or something? probably wasn't that economical either :|

But then it was from back in the day when diesel was only in lorries and tractors. Though Mercedes Diesels wernt too bad.
Then the xud came out it must have been a big relief for diesel buyers.
Here is something from ebay france, which is visitable with google chrome as it changes the french into english which in itself is a laugh because of how the translator works

My mates da had a W123 diesel, make a cracking noise, but a big comfortable car!

Looks like a cracking car. Do they use salt on the roads much in the US?
