Peugeot's hot hatch from the eighties - the 205 GTI! (This is the British model - note right-hand-drive!)
![]() It came very close to being offered for sale in America in the eighties, but, eh, no such luck!

The 405 sedan!
![]() Sold in the United States, it was expected to reverse Peugeot's fortunes here, but its poor quality, coupled with anti-French sentiment remaining from President Mitterand's disagreements with President Reagan over how to deal with terrorism, sealed Peugeot's fate in the U.S. It quit the market in 1991. |

My late grandmother (my father's mother) bought a Peugeot (known to us as a Pew-get). My father who is a master mechanic and knows all about cars, thought it was a bad buy and it will break down and be a piece of junk.
He was wrong, that car lasted many, many years without mechanical problems, and this was in rural Iowa, an environment (especially in winter) not kind to cars. |
