Anyone for a Peugeot Van?

Years ago I was visiting an auto dealer client of mine. The dealership sold Peugeot as well as several GM makes. We were chit chatting in the break room when the Peugeot Sales Specialist (actually required by Peugeot as a franchise condition) strolled in and proclaimed that a Peugeot had just won the Paris to Dakkar rally. Without even lifting his eyes from his newspaper the dealership's service manager quipped "They must have had the faster wrecker in the race." The dealer often told me he didn't care much money he lost selling a Peugeot, because he would always make it up in the service department.

There are Peugeots and there are Peugeots. They won the World Rally Championship several times and won the Le Mans 24 hours outright with a diesel a few years back. I had a 1979 504 wagon years ago. Had it for over ten years. Under powered with its little 2L pushrod hemi 4 banger but very comfortable and roomy, built like a tank and except for one blown head gasket and a starter motor, quite reliable.
