Peugeot 305 is a small family car, produced from 1977 to 1989 in Sochaux, France. The body of the 305 was designed from scratch by Italian company Pininfarina. The car was available as 4-door saloon, estate and a 3-door van. There were 3 trim levles – GL (Grand Luxe), SR (Super Routiere), GR (Grand Routiere) and 6 engines (4 petrol and 2 diesels) to choose from.
Peugeot 305 received a facelift in 1982. Facelifted models had revised frontal , new improved front suspension and steering, a new dashboard and a modified under bonnet and subframe layout to allow the new generation of XU series engines with 5-speed gearbox to be fitted. After the 1982 facelift, a new 1.9 diesel engine was also fitted, replacing the 1.5 diesel engine used before.
