Thread: v8 in a peugeot 504

Awesome stuff.Thats why i like the Rover V8.You can stick them in little cars and you still dont lose your handling.Plus they sound and go good.

Had one in at work a while back that was shoehorned into a 1986 Toyota T18 liftback Waaayyy too much go for a little car, especially with the LSD in the rear end

TIM.

Looks like a 4.4 P76 engine judging by the rocker cover and filler cap.

200HP in standard trim

Heaven,

Spent many an hour working on 504, diesels and petrols, 505Gi etc etc. I think they are vastly underrated and even the 2.3 diesel 5spd ones will hold 130km/h all day and still get 40+mpg

The best one I had driven though was a 505Gti with eibach suspension and some hard Ferodo or metal king pads THAT was deceptively quick through the twisty stuff for a big car, and being able to continually brake late made for a surprisingly good point to point time.

403 and 404 diesel are used in South America as a taxis and go for ever.
The 404 ute is an awesome machine on the mud. We used them on the rice farms as a service vehicles at the John Deere dealer over there.

I love the sound of the second one....but I hate it when people do burn outs..

seriously WHAT IS THE POINT other than its coz we can! watching the second one I was like oh yeah that sounds really nice..then in came the tyre squeel and spoilt it.
