Prof. Monkey Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 I am quite excited really, which is a bit sad, picked this car up at a bargain price! Pug 205 GTI, 1.6 though 1988, White and with only 77,000 miles from new with service history The body work is very clean and the interior is spotless, no smokers in here The only problem is that it needs, a lower ball joint and a rear link replacing and a new fuel pump. Been searching on ebay and the parts are cheapy cheap! Here is a pic..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dangerous brain Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 A mate of mine stuck a turbo technics kit on a 1.9 one of these. Now that was entertaining I remember I loved them in green with the special upgrade leather and double sized sunroof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prof. Monkey Posted May 21, 2006 Author Share Posted May 21, 2006 Yeah the green ones were nice, but we have a family superstition that prevents me from buying anything green - explains why I am a fat bastard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike M Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 Seen them fitted with a GTI-6 engine and luminition throttle bodies, must be totally mental. Great handling pugs, it's a shame as peugeot seem to have lost the classic look after the 106 and 306. Now they all look like any other modern euro box.
