The silver pug 104 from earlier in this thread is at the moment in a scrapyard!!! A mate of mine scrapped it (yes - he is a moron, I've told him so) the other day and I have been told that its going in the crusher on tuesday which is a real shame. It runs and drvies (just, few minor problems, nothing major) and had (and may even still have) a current MOT!!! It has a little rust on the bottom of the doors and in a few other places and a couple of dents here and there but nothing that isn't fairly easily fixable. The reg is RPR609X and the car is located at East Anglia Car Recycling, Rackheath Industrial Estate, Norwich.  Someone please save it (if the yard will let you!). |

It needed it for the track as engine cooling on ZS's is pretty marginal at best and the oil was getting too hot towards the end of a good thrashing.

May I ask - does you 104 have electric windows? I have been looking for my dads old one from when I was a kid? His one he installed electric windows and would have been then only one. It is the right colour and was showroom condish when he sold it. I would be choked to find it and get a deal struck to give it back to him. Cheers David

Is the 104 basically the same as the Talbot Samba then?
My girlfriends cousin has a pretty tidy red Samba that he needs to sell on. I'd have it like a shot if I had the space, time and funds to fix it up, but I've got enough on with the cars I've got unfortunately.

Nice car! Is the 104 basically the same as the Talbot Samba then? Yes, the Talbot Samba and Citroen LNA are both copies of the Peugeot 104ZS |

had a 5 door one in white, had to change the cam at 60k as the lobes had worn off, in the end changed the whole head from a car at bucky's (you should know where that is!)
pretty sure mine was older than yours though, and basic is the best way to describe the interior

Hi. Ooh look that's when it looked nearly nice! Yes it has electric windows. This was standard on the ZS from 1980 onwards. In standard form the ZS interior is certainly not basic or Spartan. Base level cars are though.
Car is currently looking a bit sad in a barn in Tetbury. Will be going on eBay in a week or so.

I was sure he added the windows and he added a peugeot 1600cc 205 gti engine back then I think on twin carbs. It's very vague memory. I would love to get my hands on one. according to DVLA there is none left? or is that none taxed at present?

He may have added the windows t a base model or an earlier 76-81 ZS, which had wind up windows. He won't have fitted a 205GTi motor as they are completely different and don't really go in without welding the whole front from a Citroen Visa on. He may have but the 1360 motor from a 205 GT in. They are the same XY engine and came with twin carbs.
Mine has twin webbers which is different again and needs a special cylinder head.
