1992 Peugeot 205 STDT review from UK and Ireland
"Get one or miss out!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Front to rear drivers side brake pipe split under heavy braking; same again on passenger side!!!
One crash, luckily no damage or casualties!!!
Brakes were inefficient so I fitted GTi6 306 front callipers, pads and discs, much improved braking.
Can't find interior parts, even from Peugeot dealers? Rare limited interior, comfy seats though, newer cars I've driven have given me backache!!!
General comments?
I have a 1990 205 TD 5dr called Herbie Turbo due to its reg plate. I also have Goldie Turbo, a 1992 205 STDT. To keep it sweet I want more, more of these under appreciated future classics.
