sierraman Posted September 18, 2019 Author Share Posted September 18, 2019 Posted this before but look at this honey! Stag with a 1.8 TD P100 unit in it. Full of wob, painted in Hammerite silver, chrome painted over with wheel silver. Skirts to cover all the birdshit welding. Looked up the MOT history, full of praise from the tester. I’d love to take it to the Triumph Owners Club Annual Concours event. Lacquer Peel, BorniteIdentity, Asimo and 2 others 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Built by Peugeot as a one-off record-breaker, a 404 Cabrio body was fitted with rather lovely lightweight streamlined panels and a 2163cc diesel unit - expressly to showcase the properties of its oil-burning units. It ran at an average of 99mph over 72 hours at the Montlhéry circuit south-west of Paris in June 1965, covering 5000km. A month later, with the smaller 1948cc unit fitted, it covered a further 11,000km at Montlhéry, this time managing an average of 100mph. All in all, it managed to net 40 endurance records for Peugeot before being retired, the manufacturer's point about diesel's potential speed and reliability in its passenger cars having been definitively proven. Happily, the car is still owned by Peugeot and puts in regular show appearances. Would.

dozeydustman Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Talbot Horizon came with the 1.9 XUD. By all accounts better than the petrol engined models. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
