    Haha, well think about it this way--

    I am very certain that if you ran a 505 station wagon and a Toyovan
    side by side at 100 MPH non stop, the Toyovan would experience major
    failure(s) long before the 505 was ready to give up--kickpanel mounted
    speakers and all! :)

    I agree that the taillight connectors and boards are a joke--really
    poor design that was destined to have problems from day one... Another
    thing is the sunroof contraption--what a joke. Blower motor location?
    HA, great choice guys!

    However these are all little things that don't affect what makes a car
    "a car"--they are just an annoyance. So I stand by my belief that
    during the era in question, Peugeot *overall* had a more evolved "car".
