General description of the body (Peugeot 305)

Peugeot 305 has a welded body type "monocoque" (with working cover), built using a large number of prefabricated parts. This design is a direct result of tests carried out by the company. The salon has a rigid, indelible structure and is protected front and rear with special devices that absorb impact energy. Side impact protection is achieved through the use of a ribbed reinforced floor, beasts that won't jam under all conditions, and a well-protected fuel tank. The bonnet mounts are specially designed to prevent the lid from moving backwards in a frontal collision.

After thorough anti-corrosion preparation, the structural parts of the body are coated with a special compound that prevents chipping. A mixture of paraffin and resins is injected into the internal cavities. The Peugeot 305 is a prime example of a reliable and durable car that does honor to its manufacturer.
