Don't you dare turn it into a manual or I'll come back in the dead of night and steal it back!!!!!!
Before or after the conversion?

I know nothing of these things, but can you swap the 3 speed auto out for a more modern 4 or 5 speed auto? I'd imagine it's far too hard but interested nonetheless.
Yep: 36 all round is what I kept in them also. I also second the statement on Peugeot knowing what they're doing. (well, once anyway.)
Why bother.......let Luthier be content with a great car once Dan knocks the rough edges off it.
By the way, "Armidillo" I went to a lot of trouble and expense to keep Cecil well maintained. Ask Dan to have a look at the receipts file!!
The trouble in the sticks is ,you can't find anybody who knows anything beyond doing an oil change in a bloody Commode Drawer (or Fowl Can.!)Even "Alpine Affaire" failed me(who do you think put the new plugs in it?)after an $880 service charge!

Where do they state 36 psi please ??Yes, absolutely. I play around with the pressures a lot. I was running 40 front, 38 rear but have found 36 all round is a really nice balance for ride and handling - amazingly that's what the cars tyre placard says. Peugeot do know what's best I guess.
roundabouts are a good place to play.
I went shopping today for the PC5.Hmm! It's sometimes a false move to chase a size unless a suitable tyre is available in it. If, despite that, you are settled on 205/60, then there is no short list. The best of the medium list is Continental UltraContact 6. Not a patch on a PremiumContact 5 but the best of a not so wonderful bunch of possibilities in that size.
Bonne Chance! Peter

I asked the sales person about 205/55/16 (for the 308) and he proudly offered the UC6. Went home & currently checking the reviews and it seems to be way superior to the PC5.
