1993 Peugeot 205 Junior review from UK and Ireland
"Comfort and reliability combined with economy and adequate performance; a joy to own and drive"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing too serious; in fact just general wear and tear.
Both front wheel bearings.
New radiator at 120000 miles.
New alternator at 150000 miles.
Three sets of brake disks over the years.
Rear subframe mounting bushes.
General comments?
A wonderful little car. Had it from new and it's never let me down.
Will cruise happily all day at 85 (where allowed ;-) )
The fuel consumption never drops below 55 mpg.
Supremely comfortable ride, even on dodgy roads.
