Kicking off both #peugeotweek and #endangeredspeciesweek by @car_ravioli and @elli.carspotting with this wonderful, early 90s Peugeot 309. I spotted this a couple of weeks ago behind Toyota's Stockport Dealership and to my surprise, the street also had a Saab 9-5 and old Volvo Estate. And what great condition this 309 is in with its original gold pinstriping and unfaded Rouge Plaisir paint; such a time capsule with just 25k miles! The 309 was a small family car made by Peugeot from 1985 through 1994. It was originally intended to be badged as the Talbot Arizona but PSA decided to discontinue the brand in 1985 leaving this to be badged as a Peugeot. It was available as a 4-door hatch like this one, or a 3-door hatch. The 309 was also available with a plethora of engine choices ranging from a Simca derived 1.1L to a 1.9L Petrol which was used in the GTi model. In 1986 the diesel engines were added into the lineup, ranging from a 1.8L to a 1.9L. This 'GL' model features the 1294cc Simca derived engine with a 4-Speed manual gearbox and is just 1 of 193 left and 1 of 51 registered on the roads! 1991 Peugeot 309 GL Same Owner Since 2014 25,752 Miles Rouge Plaisir/Pleasure Red 🟥 🇫🇷 #peugeot #309 #309gl #peugeot309 #peugeotlegends #peugeot309gl #1991 #90scars #retrocars #classiccars #classicfrenchcars #oldcars #frenchcars #frenchhatchback #frenchfancy #frenchcar #carsyoudontseeanymore #rarecars #rarecar #youngtimers #youngtimer #retrocar #instacars #carporm #carsofinstagram #cargram (at Stockport) https://www.instagram.com/p/CVdIruboxXt/?utm_medium=tumblr
