1990 Peugeot 205 GTi Classique Sport review from Sweden

An air hose on top of the engine "flew" off and I got oil all over the engine room. After it was re-fitted I put 2 liters of oil in the engine to restore proper levels.

Small (but many) electrical problems in the interior.

Car-door pockets about to fall off on both sides.

Oil leakage (probably from oil filter box)

Water leakage (source unknown)

I bought this car about 3-4 months ago and have had the problems listed above. Altough they are quite a few they are all minor errors. The car is quite old (1990) and I am the 10th (!) owner of it and that's not something you want especially when it's a GTi.

I choosed to buy mine anyway since it had nice interior (except some minor electricity problems) and the engine was running fine without black clouds comming out of it.

There are some rust on it even though I've seen many ~89 models looking just perfect. Why mine has begun to rust I don't know. The rust is mostly in and around screw holes in the engine room and front spoiler. So be sure to check that out (check front-frontspoiler screws).

In general the car is a fun experience to drive. Although very noisy (90KM/h+) and does not handle well in rain (even with brand new tires).

I love it when it works, but I really hate it when it don't since the French engineers made some extremely (!) strange solutions of some things.
