This was my Peugeot 205 GTi 1.6 in about 2004, sadly sold now.
Absolutely loved this motor, had wanted one for years, finally found a mint Miami Blue model, very last of the line, 1992, in Cannock Chase. Paid £800, cleaned and shampoo'd the heck out of it, had it serviced by a motorsport mechanic mate. The heavy *thunk* of the doors, the hollow, metallic boom of the engine, the arm-destroying weight of the steering! I can't confirm this but I think it was the last ever 1.6 registered in the UK (registered in August 1992 if I recall, and there were only a handful sold here that year, so it's likely). Had the scarce black trim and interior. Totally original too.

Last seen for sale in Scotland, hope it's current owner loves it as much as I did, they're worth a lot more than £800 now.
