So, managed somehow to purchase a rather tidy, 2 owner 85K 1.9 205 GTI which has been garaged since new. Problem is, I've run out of garage space at home. So do I evict my Range Rover classic from one of the garages and put the pug there, or put the pug outside under the cover. Decision is made harder by the fact that the Range Rover is also a rather tidy (if somewhat unreliable) version.


Thanks, Confused of Surrey.

Other way round for me.

205 less likely to dissolve outside

15 paperbag Though the truck does not really count as i coown it with someone else, by the end of the week 8 will be taxed and on the road. The rest are in storage apart from the RX7 which will be finished by Christmas (though will not be taxed as its track car only) and the Biturbo, which may be finished when I'm 90!

If the pug is letting in any water via the sunroof/seal, tailgate trim/seal or rear 1/4 window/rubbers, then the answer is the Pug hehe

This coming from the current owner of a 205 GTI who resolved the water ingress via the tailgate seal a few years ago, then gained a leak from the rear 1/4 windows this year, resolved that and now have a tiny amount coming in the tailgate again in heavy rain frown

Can't get my Pug in the garage as there's already another car in there, so i'm off to buy a decent cover from Classic Additions in the next week or so to hide it under smile

Feels a bit wrong, and sad too say but the Pug will be more resilient than the Range. Fully galvanised body you see. nerd

Fair play for having 15 cars! My mrs goes daft when I start looking at more cars!

My vote would be 205 in the garage, it's a classic after all
