A stunning version of an iconic hot hatch as is - or perhaps the basis of a Tolman restomod...
Cars like the Peugeot 205 GTI are never far from discussion on PH, but it’s actually been a very long time since we’ve plucked one from the classifieds. Probably because we’re all scared about the price.
, when we were excited about a 30th anniversary 208 GTI, a really nice 1.6 205 would have cost £4,500. With recent restorative work. And fewer than 100,000 miles.
