1990 Peugeot 205 XS from UK and Ireland - Comments

Clutch went at 90'000 (costs of nearly £200 to replace)

Central locking was very temperamental.

Sun roof leaked.

Electrical problems involving the stereo and dash board.

Manifold didn't fit down-pipe, led to a constant blowing that was never fixed.

This car was seriously good fun despite all its faults, once lowered and on a set of 15" alloys this car looks seriously good as is a almost gti replica.

The biggest criticism of this car was the extremely expensive insurance (its only a 1.4 not a gti) and how much Peugeot want to charge you for parts, much better off going to a motor factors for everything.

205 Xs's are very very cheap to insure for what they are, I am 19 and I pay £578 in my own name, best places to try are direct line and the other good one is elephant.co.uk.
