205 XS - impossible to find?

Why an XS? Nostalgia? Friend used to have one in the mid 90's. Decent enough car. But not a classic surely.
I can understand a Rallye or a GTI.
Rallye for ultimate low weight carb fed.
1.6 for purity of GTI feel & original.
1.9 for 'muscle'

Friend of a friend had one he drove it to college frequently nice car, he bought it as the GTI 1.6 or 1.9 wasn’t remotely possible to insure.
Would you choose an XS over a GTI 1.6 or 1.9 if condition history were identical but the car was free/ or identical price?
For XS equivalent I’d be sniffing out a Citroen AX GTI & a 309 GTI /405 Mi16

XS is in no way equivalent to an Mi16.TEKNOPUG said:
There are so few left and people know that they can now charge silly money for them. Probably be easier to recreate one from spares.
Yep, that red phase 1 has gone up another grand ( now 10 ) since thread startedGood luck with a phase 2 search - one will come up one day if you keep looking

No, it's not a 205 or an XS but it's certainly a very, very worthy alternative:
