1989 Peugeot 205 Rallye review from Finland
"Real 205 Rallye"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Front brakes replaced.
Rear brakes replaced.
Seats were in really bad condition.
Seats changed to leather ones from a 1.9 GTI.
Some problems with the electrics because the previous owner had made some clever "adjustments"!
General comments?
This car is very aggressive.
Handles better than any car I have driven.
Much more fun than my dad's 1.6 GTI and my brother's 1.9 GTI.
Not suitable as a first car!
