Peugeot 205 Gti Review

Good Points
Timeless classic,
excellent handling and grip,
Galvanised body on later models.

Bad Points
Not the fastest car on the road,
flimsy build,
crash damaged cars.

General Comments
The Peugeot 205 Gti is an all time classic.

Handles brilliantly and is second to none. (never been beaten by anything around corners)

Its been extremely reliable with the 1.6 engine (for 11 years i've never had any major faults with the car)



I've owned the same car for 13 years with the 1.6 engine for 11 of those years then changed the engine to a low mileage 1.9 because it was cheap which only lasted 6 months (blew it up testing my nitrous set up)..then the mi16 engine which has been unreliable due to a BAD CONVERSION (not wired up correctly)... But have loved every moment of ownership even though its cost me a small fortune.

I have aquired another one of these cars and I am still on the look out for a late example of this car... if I can find one thats not been crashed.
