What things have gone wrong with the car?

Umm starter motor, oil leak around the head gasket, brake lines, tensioner bearing in the cam shaft.

General comments?

Good car, handles like a dream.

I'm 20 and I own a red 205 GT on a 'G' plate. It's my first car, and I tell you what, I certainly have some fun at the lights, when pulled up side by side with boy racers (like myself) in Nova SR's, XR2's and the like. It's got quick acceleration for a 1.4.

I'm hoping to get 'Twin 40's' on it, then I'll write more comments about it!

Does the 205 GT have the same engine as the XS (with the twin carbs)?

I have just recently put a GT engine in my car and your right about the head gasket, mines gone. Mine does not have twin carbs but I can tell you I'm putting them on, overall: A good car for young drivers, loads of fun, eats Nova's alive! YEAH!

I've got an 1987 GT With twin Weber Carbs and its the best car to take off I've ever had the pleasure to drive. This car can spin the wheels in 3 gear from a stand still!! And get you from 0-60 in about 6 sec.!! A trualy amazing car for a 1.4L.

I have a Black 205 GT Greg and she is like a rocket. Its my first car and I've just given it a full service including a new low mileage engine which has no oil leaks at all and I've bought a set of split fires leads and the engine runs like a watch. Also I've got a set of Peugeot 306 wheels which are 14" to make the handling better not like the old 13" standard wheels.

Good car all round.

I've bought my daughter a 205 SR 1988 with only 46000 on the clock. It is super to drive, better than the 106 xnd which my wife owns. Only trouble so far is it needed a new starter motor.
