1989 Peugeot 205 1.9 Dimma review from UK and Ireland
"This is a monster in every sense of the word"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The headlights are faulty.
A little rust has appeared next to the rear spoiler.
Lacquer has started to peel behind the passenger door.
The rocker cover gasket has gone.
The exhaust manifold is blowing.
General comments?
Apart from the above, I cannot fault this car.
Magnificent handling with the Dimma alloys.
Fantastic acceleration.
The best looking hot hatch ever created.
