Bodywork OK for age.
Ad-speak for 'borked beyond redemption' I'm afraid.

This isn't the anti-French troll formally known as VR46 we had on here before. Strange he's only been a member for a month and already pissing people off.

Update. Just checked Schuey M's profile and looking at previous posts it is him who was trolling PH a few months ago as VR46, BEWARE!

in general gassing ah well will soon be ignored and will setup another accountShame to scrap it but hopefull it'll let others live on
Normal place for 405's to rust, Sills are renound for going rusty under the plastic side sill's, if you remove it you'll find a even bigger hole,
Yes the old Bendix ABS has been removed and a servo fitted and the Mi wheels of that period where 14", Only the late G plate's with revised trim went onto 15" wheels
Most people now fit the GTi6 engine, More modern electronics as the old Motronic (Mi16 bits) are getting on these days, shame as its a good conversion.
Missed out on the build quality of the 205.

After giving the car a proper going over with my mate Rich, I have concluded that it is awesome, and deserves many hours of love and attention.
The list of jobs is as follows.
1. Make drivers door work
2. Transport to Southways Automotive
3. Purchase MOT failure sheet
4. Make passenger door work
5. Prevent precipitation from encroaching on cockpit area
6. Remove gash wheels, kill with fire. Fit original 405 Mi16 15 inch alloys.
7. Replace timing-belt prior to annihilation of 16 large valves.
8. Replace leaking fuel pipe before it kills itself and me with fire (hot fire)
9. Replace front and rear discs and pads
10. Service
11. Fill French holes with metal
12. Purchase cone air filter to bring more noise (most important)
13. Fix remaining MOT failures
14. Take for 2nd test (having missed free retest within 10 working days)
15. Contact Woman to seek forgiveness. Cat misses her
16. Drive of my life
What could possibly go wrong....
Nice Peugeot Gold-Fish bowl you have there... most importantly is that a Munchkin cat? The list of jobs is as follows.

It's so damn cute 
Sorry to see those pictures of rot Simon.
Pretty shocking to be honest, most pugs of that era aren't usually that bad. The first thing we did on mine before pressing on with the latest round of spending was get it up to check for rot.
There was none.
I'd have been gutted if there were but would have done the same as you.
As much as I love mine it I don't believe they will ever be worth anything. I'll know for sure in ten years or so as I'm not selling.
Shame for you.
I'll have the wheels off you if you haven't already sold them.

Thanks Ringweekends. They are available if you want them.
Just want to say, I was really expecting lots of pisstaking when this all went wrong, but I have been really surprised and pleased with all the positive comments I have received from everyone. Thanks very much
I'll get something else to keep you entertained soon

You sure that you can't be tempted by a better shell?
