Most mid level and higher Gitanes that I encountered in the 80's had better looking lugs (windowed) that what that one has. Lots of them aslo had nice touches like diamond shaped reinforcements at the ends of the seat and chainstay bridges. and the top cable routing comes in and out of the top of the tube, not near to the bottom and to the side as this one has. So this one is not showing the typical "Gitane" signs I would suspect, which makes the possibility of a bike sourced from maybe an Asian subcontractor that have different designs from what they had in France to use. Weird thing is, the frame design looks very similar to later 80's/early 90's Peugeots too...
