I know it may sound funny, but have you tried Auto Zone? I needed a new
starter for my '86 505 TD (XD3T) last week and no one could get me one and
it would have been 2 weeks to have the old one rebuilt. Auto Zone had one
for me the next day for only $115. You could also try Maywood Peugeot in NJ
(201-587-9000).
