Not a chance of it going in a 205. How very dare you.

Mate, monstrous respect and admiration to you! You do realise you've bought an utterly brilliant, wonderful classic for peanuts, don't you? Containing one of the best powerplants like ever, right?

I'm actually bloody jealous!

But then I am an ex-205 Gti owner too...


Please, please, keep us updated on the collection and transportation home saga, yeah? Thanks! thumbup


A million PH points to this man everyone!

Let's hope it all comes off swimmingly. I have to replace the GTA somehow, and I thought retro cool might fill the void.

I prefer the 405 myself, I'd keep it standard, I just know a fair few people have done the conversion. Good luck with it, make it excellent. biggrin

Good luck with the trip, hope all is well. smile

I will be looking into that tomorrow, even if its only part way. Has anybody in Scotland got a trailer and want to earn some beer tokens, could meet part way, even if it was at the boarder?
