Not a thing (touch wood).
Fantastic performance, the best Rallye incarnation ever.
Better than both the 1.6 and 1.9 GTi (I still have a 1.6 and turned my 1.9 into a rally car).
Very uncompromising, a genuine stripped-out homologation special.
Not good on the motorway (70mph = 4100 rpm) so buy a decent road map and head cross-country where it is in its element.
This car is NOT the warmed over 1.4 excuse for a 205 Rallye that we Brits were forced to have, but the genuine French 1.3 LHD barn-stormer (103 bhp @ 7000 rpm, very short gearing, twin Weber 40 DCOE's and the lightest performance 205 available).
I own also a 1.3 Rallye. There has to something wrong with your car because my Rallye's figures on the motorway are 82mph = 4100 RPM!!
Correction! 130 kilometers per hour at 4100 rpm!
Any advice on weak points - what's the first thing to break when it's pushed hard off road rallying? I'll find out soon.

I have a Rallye too. The car is more fun than a 1.9 GTi (I had one too).
I'm looking for a second hand exhaust manifold and a K&N filter kit. Have you got one?
