1987 Peugeot 205 XS review from UK and Ireland
"Very fast, very cheap"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Seats torn, electrical problems.
General comments?
Very cheap to run, 40 mpg. Very quick with cheap insurance. Not really a motorway car, revs a bit too high. It cuts out if you go through too many puddles and it takes a long time to try and get it started again.
