Thia goes well when your eating a roast 🎉

I could watch this fantastic channel all day long … thoroughly enjoyed this episode Al ,thank you 🙏🏻

Well done indeed, thought this one would be too far gone even for you to wake up!

Presentation by the " New Sting " 😂

You absolutely great with your work 👏 👍 ❤

Wow Al, you've breathed life into another one. I admire you skills and ingenuity.

Hey AL, one of your best barn find/ will it run? videos, that'll make a brilliant restoration project for someone & it actually started too! To think this 42 year old pug was only 10 years old when it was parked up! Yet by not selling it on at the time, they have actually helped to preserve it's existence!

Al 6D diesels looking decidedly chuffed with himself at the end there.. 10/10 fella

We had a 305 diesel Van back in the day and it was brilliant Never gave up and always started Super reliable workhorse Keep up the good work Al

Fantastic video!!! One of the very best channels on KZread. How I wish cars looked like the 305 these days! Huge 305 fan. Keep up the brilliant work

I'm lovin' this channel, your enthusiasm is wonderful Al.

Very entertaining Al, thanks.

Merde, i'm getting old ..😊 All the stuff of my youth are in museums or rusted away.. But sometimes here and there appears a rescue man❤

I wish I had a fraction of your know how with cars..always a joy to watch you bring these vehicles back to life 👍👍👍👍

Love your videos al have nearly every video watched ☺️

Blimey an early 204 engined pre 1984 facelift 305 estate! Ace!! 👍👍

Quality viewing Al top class !!!!!!

Wow no way did I think that wudda started up, what a talent you have, thoroughly enjoyed watching you bring her back to life 👍🏻

Well that is just fantastic. A man after my own heart. Delighted to see that. Nothing like witnessing an abandoned hedgehog coming back to life. Fair play.

Wow what a find! My dad was a Peugeot dealer when these were new, he's always said they were quite good, would love to see it sorted!! 👌👍

The riot wagon is looking good. Great video as always.

Love your videos!!

Top mechanic.

Only you Al, only you 👍

A brave man indeed. Bought a new t shirt and started working on the car. My wife would kill me. Great content as usual Al.

GREAT CHANNEL LOVE IT

you have a great flair for this kind of thing. Lucky you can use these skills every day, to make people happy.

Finally subscribed 👍 Very interesting. lots of Funage.😊

Always a joy to watch you Al, whatever you are doing! 🤣

Incredible!

Another superb will it start video from you, 👍👍

5:26 facial expressions cracked me up 😂

Another little gem saved! Always liked those Peugeot interiors.

If you need any parts hola. Got a shed full of old Peugeot bits around the 05 era. Lot are new from main dealer stock. Great video!

Bought a 305 he says, my immediate thought was for the floorpan to fix the van! Wrong! Well it actually sounds sweet once it was running. Amazing that people park cars up and leave them for 30 odd years. Great vid Al.

Original plan was for the floor pans !! That might have changed and I think I’ve found some new ones

Having a clear out he says…whilst instantly replacing the camper with another long term project you’ll likely never have a chance to do 🤣 - I bet your mrs just rolls her eyes now lol

Happy days let's hope it gets to enjoy the open road once again 👍🏻

One of my favourite videos of the week. Been watching you back catalogue too, really enjoying the channel, definitely one of my favourites.

Great video Al best way to start a Sunday morning mate 👍

Love the sarcasm and wit of these video’s, love to know what the music is,

Great video. Keep up the great work Al

See why they loved these in North Africa, particularly the diesel ones. Bombproof simple engineering that works. “Self lightening” got me going again😂😊

Spot on Al 👍

The headliner is still better than my MK5 Golf. 😞

Great episode .

Great video as always, would be a lovely restoration project this I hope so Anyways. Until the next one 👌

Great stuff again Al

Such a lovely car, the 305 estate. And as an extra a Peugeot J5 van. I like those almost as much as the old Mercedes vans (Dusseldorfer and Bremer).

Brilliant video from Al the magician ❤

Be great to see what you do with this old pug Al 👀👍👍

Another excellent video.

great content good to see the car run after 30 odd years love your work mate

Fantastic stuff.. another great vid..

Another great video has always al 👍

Absolutely cracking!

Fab vid Al great job mate!

Wow what a beautiful Car congratulations getting it going sounds great

Brilliant video al, its alive!👍

I just love these video's.

Great channel AL, really like your videos , could watch a lot more, very interesting

Wow!

My late uncle Ronnie had an n reg 75 model back in around 1980/81 he hated it called it an effin pig.😅lol

My dad had the saloon one in 1987 it was two years old .he never had it long .it over heated badly. the radiator and water pump went at same time. he couldn't find those parts anywere in the UK. they weren't that common back then .he sold it to young guy that had rusted out one ready with parts lol

Al 6D Diesels, is there no vehicle on planet earth that you can’t throw a battery on and wave your spanner’s at, give a squirt of the old go go juice and it’s alive? Don’t matter it’s condition, the amount of years it’s been neglected or even if a few parts are missing guaranteed you’ll get it running. Love your knowledge on anything engine related. Keep on entertaining us with your videos.

Thanks

Brilliant video very funny 😂

Awesome v log never thought you'd get that going again , needs a tickle with the welder & clear coat the rest would look good as a ratty style wagon

Amusing video as always !. An interesting find. I thought it was good to hear the engine suddenly crank much faster on the same battery supply - possible the starter motor brushes has finally met the commutator properly ?!. Keep up the good work Al.

bellissima.....è stat la prima auto che ho guidato. un saluto dall'Italia !!!

Al I've just discovered your channel and this is a candidate for a patina restoration. Someone who has the time could make it into a decent little runner. Good video bud.

Xud won't fit the mk.1 engine bay chassis.. the mk.2 305s were heavily modified to take the xud.. mice idea though.

Looks like a great project for someone as i think it may just sit in the yard awaiting your attention like so many other projects im not having a dig or oat iv just got my sensible head on today PS loving the content cheers bud 👏👏👌👌🤝🤝👍🏻👍🏻

Had a saloon one back in about 87 while my Sd1 was off the road ,, poped a drive shaft doing wheel spins as you did back then ,it had the yellow headlights Love the channel Al ,,, 👍

Very nice peugeot that

Can’t wait for Sunday to arrive. 😂

Another great entertaining video.(My wife doesn’t get it).

Extreme optimism

My dad had one of this when I was a kid, god he hated it lol it was only a few years old at the time and kept braking down, I think it was 1.6 petrol and was gutless, he used to pass everyone on a downhill section of the motorway then everyone passed us again as soon as it hit a hill. FWY 112T think it was the same colour. (I remember all the reg numbers of my dads cars as I grew up but can’t remember my own)

Al does it again, well done Sir!

Great video. You could do with a microphone buddy.

A right royal french job, from the Royal Borough of Windsor & Maidenhead, Furze Platt...

Hired a 305 for a few days back in the 80’s, I remember it as a very comfortable car, nice to drive too. Covered around 300 miles in 4 days.
