User on 205GTIdrivers has a 205GTI and fitted the XU7DT engine - plus a few additional mods and it's quite quick. Shed loads of torque, I'll dig out a review of it it you want. My brother had a 1.9TD ZX, didn't last more than 3 weeks!

As a long time lurker I feel I should post up some pictures and a brief spec of my car.
1990 205GTI - owned for 7.5 years.
Started modding her after about 3 years, things happened slowly over the next few.
Eibach lowering springs (25mm) Bilstein front suspension Group N Top mounts Rebuilt rear beam - torsion bars adjusted to match lowered front. Group N mounts Skip Brown Road speed dampers.
XU9JA4 (Mi16) lump removed from 405mi16x4 only 57k miles old then. Dismantled and rebuilt with new mains and a pair of 262 cams. Custom loom made so all engine electronics relocated into car. Bosch Motronic 1.3 management Maniflow 4-2-1 with Magnex centre and rear silencers Mi16 gearbox - stripped and rebuilt (new bearings)
206GTI180 front brakes Replaced rubber hoses with braided Replaced all steel pipes with new copper ones.
Replaced Non-PAS rack for PAS rack with all assistance removed - makes for a quicker rack.
I seemed to have stopped for now - routine maintenance jobs seem to get in the way.
Still makes me laugh each time I drive her.
All the Rolling roads I've been on I seem to get around 172bhp - so pleased about that. Especially as she weighs on around 900kg.
EDIT: 2016 now - will try and rehost the old photos - pre dslr!

Learn't to drive on a BX19RD. My dad then had a 17DTR which covered 435,000kms...still on it's original clutch. It had a terrible oil leak for the last 100,000kms; meant the oil was basically topped up once a week (500kms travel) actually it was pretty much an oil change.

Oooh, ripple bonnet 2CV eh Simes? Sounds intriguing. Good luck with the GSA auction Herr! Yip that's right, not quite up and running yet, these were taken about 18monthas ago. Everything has been removed, a new chassis bought and slowly bits cleaned up, refurbed and being put back on......slowly!

We used to have an earlier GS and then a GS Estate in Gold metallic with velour seats, traded that in for a CX!
I'd love this and so would my dad but with already two Austin Somersets a 1958 2CV AZ in bits and possibly a DS on the horizon I'm going to have to give it a miss.
lovely though ... good luck with the sale.

Anyone know exactly what the different ratios are? www.sebfrost.co.uk/cars/peugeot-205-mi16/205ratios.xlsHe says it's verified too although it could be with one of these dashtop accelerometers which aren't fantastically accurate. Probably, or a watch that doesn't keep particulaly good time.

Well the advert says "it has a 1900 engine with a 1600 gearbox,tripple plate clutch,complete magnex ss exhaust system,kevlar pads,K and N filter, Kent 292 Hot Cam, New tyre's all round.approx power of 174BHP and accurat 0-62 in 5.4sec's and 0-132 in 16.5secs" Although re-reading that, the 0-60 appears to be provable and the BHP is approx (i initially read it as the other way around)..... Hilarious - mines an Mi16 with uprated cams - granted not as wild, but I get between 169 and 174 on various rollers. That 0-60 is unbelieveable. Sean, who's documented the build on his 8V has been wringing power out of it at considerable expensive - check his spec with the one for sale, www.track-monkey.co.uk/2058v_spec.htmCheck the classifieds on www.205gtidrivers.com and also in the for sale section on the forum.
