Mine was quite a healthy one according to the RR I had it on and back then I think I had the quickest 1/4 mile time on the Toyota Owners Club for one but when it starts with a 15 then its not much to shout about!

I thought the 205 D-Turbo came out first?

Also VW did a Golf GTD way back in the early nineties - never sold in the UK if I recall correctly

Just to be pedantic, that's not a d-turbo. Its got the wrong interior and the wrong wheels, although the wheels are probably a popular swap. The seats on the other hand should be the same as a GTi but in a different fabric.![](http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/uploads/cars/peugeot/4827095.jpg)

I do agree though, I think it was the first diesel hot hatch.
Wow, i didn't realize the thread was so old.

An interesting car but if you had to buy one today why would you buy one instead of grabbing the Megane RS175 apart from the Auris being easier to find.
