Look at it like this , i could own a boring £ series BMW no-one would bat an eyelid as i drove past , same goes for anyhtin new-ish , i drive MK2 golfs , 205 gtis , XR2s , you know why , every drive is an event , people smile because they havent seen them in a while out on the roads
always loved this car as a child. a friend got an immaculate example yesterday and took me for a spin today. good simple hot-hatch fun. it's impossible to not wear a massive grin when you're in this car. brilliant!
hehehe, nice vid m8e, the pug 205 kicks ass, but according to me mate, they oversteer raggo... :S he was doing 70 round an island (admittedly in the wet) and he spun round 360 degrees at least three times LOL
thats bollox @ yellowbananas08, if u crashed at 120 in 1 of them *even tho they are kwl* ud jus die, theres noway ud live. p.s 205GTi is a legend but... as a ford fan, ill have to say the XR2i is the daddy.
Miss mine. Unfortunately i was one of the idiots who crashed mine, i hate people like me. I was much younger then, I must get another one again though!
Ha!!! yeah my dad crahsed his at 120mph wasent good as the car wasent a 205 when he finished if you know what i mean? lol there rear cars and my dads was the green 205 gti and it was mint shame the wall in the way when he was driving it!! lol peace_x
205 GTI is the typical little french sports cars of the 80's! it's more efficient than a Golf wich is ugly,heavy and brakes like a school bus. There is only one car that beats the 205 GTI; the Clio Williams and its 150 hp! amazing car
Hum this is a big thing, but on the road, I've always seen 205 GTi exploded every Clio 16v and Williams! may be the comfort of the Williams has a price ;)
The 205 GTi rocked! I used to have a 1.6 GTi and although it was a bit flimsy, it was probably the most fun car I've ever driven (way better than the Golf GTi).
best if not the best hot hatch going. I have had all kinds of motors and currently have a newer much quicker car with 330bhp however I much prefer my other motor my 1.9 GTI... Long live the 205!
I had a black 1.9, sunroof and power steering. Very nice but: 1) it suffered city driving 2) unpredictable response at limit 3) noisy plastic interiors. Now I have a 106 rallye 16V, less power but more roadholding
205's dont rot u sack!mk2 golfs rot like mad.i do bodywork 4 a living.french cars very rarely have rot unless from crash damage not repaired properly.old german cars are one of worst for rot!!and theyre BORING (yawn)lol.mk1 golf only good thing they made lol
cool little car, shame alot of them have been chaved up!!!!!!!!

205's are ok but i'll stick with my faster hothatch, the Talbot Sunbeam Lotus. 0-60 in 6.5 and its bog standard.
barnywal 4 years ago
But the Sunbeam is a car which breakes down and it's way more expensive to own and to mend.
If You're like me and have $2000, you'd buy a 205 GTi :P
