Hello all,
Time has sadly come to move my 205 on, as it is no longer needed due to a mk3 fiesta now on the drive (plus another 205).
I bought the car last year as a retro daily and have been using it every day since. I was attracted to the car as it is one previous owner, stacks of history and low mileage (now 90k). The car is solid, but the bodywork is scruffy, so perfect for a daily. It is probably best described as a project. Below is an accurate and honest description.
Good points:
Long MOT July/Aug I think- please check the history online - it is very good.
Running, driving used daily
Solid shell
Everything works as it should
1.1 5 speed excellent mpg
Xs steel wheels - decent tyres
Obviously been looked after
Undersealed
Been 100% reliable
Immobilizer
Not so good:
Brakes need work - definitely rear shoes. Fronts slight binding too
Both rear quarters dented - see pics
Exhaust blow - had a new downpipe but not a great fit I think
Rear 1/4 window siliconed to stop leak
Driver seat split on bolster, seat covers included, the rest of the interior is very good.
I'd like it to go to a good home. Only advertising on here and Peugeot forum. It runs and drives fine, but may be best to trailer it as brakes aren't great. Feel free to message me with questions.
