MOT: 03/03 (No advisories)

Here is my 205 for sale in Cherry Red. I have just replacement the cambelt and tensioner (good for 72K) and carried-out a full service including a coolant flush. There are no headgasket worries and the engine drives brilliantly, it feels brand new and everything is very responsive including the gearbox. It doesn't use any oil or water. It's very good on fuel (easy 40MPG+) and is very quick for a 1.4! These XS's have 85hp and a twin-choke carburettor. The car weighs around 800kg so it's pretty nippy. With good tyres they can do 0-60 in 8.5/9 seconds thanks to the short-ratio gearbox which makes the car very revvy. The previous owner told me it has had a recent full set of brake lines, new battery and the front discs and pads have also just been done. It stops extremely well and I've never driven anything that goes round corners so fast! These little cars are also great on insurance for what they are.
There have only been 3 former keepers and the previous owner had it for over 10 years covering over 50,000 miles.
Inside it has the original radio and vacuum sealed sunroof, both of which work well. The car is surprisingly quiet for something so nippy even at motorway speeds. There's no knocks or bangs and it's extremely comfortable and reliable I'd happily drive it anywhere.
There is some wear and tear here and there of which can be seen in the pictures.
I haven't found any rust worth worrying about. There is some minor surface rust as there usually is with cars these age but it hasn't been welded in the past and it currently doesn't need any doing. What surface rust was found was treated with Waxoyl. I have also lubricated the rear beam as these are known to seize over time.
I have a bit of history with the car along with some spare parts including the original front number plate.
*** It's currently on 1.9 GTI wheels but they will be removed before sale and original XS wheels will be fitted (see picture) all with legal tread. The GTI wheels are available separately for £130 but the new owner will need to purchase wheel bolts to fit. The wheels are in pretty good condition and are painted in Anthracite grey. I have 5 wheels, 4 of which have almost new matching Toyo Proxes, the other is legal. ***
