theorganist Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 This isn't my car but a neighbours. It is a 1990 H reg Peugeot 205 NA Diesel 5 Door, not sure if it is a GLD or GRD. It is dark blue not metallic. It has done 80,000 miles and has an MOT till May. They have been given a mark 4 Golf by a relative (he also owns a Porsche 944) so they want to get rid of the Peugeot. I have known the car a long time as they bought it off their immediate neighbours. I don't think it has ever given much trouble. It looks solid to me. He seems to think it is only worth £200, I would have thought a little more than that personally. I can get pictures if people are interested. I think he is involved in the medical profession (if that matters) and I have only really known him a few years. He sometimes and comes over to chat about cars. If you are interested let me know and I can put any interested parties in touch with him. Cavcraft and Partridge 2
eddyramrod Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 It certainly needs to be "in the family" as this is the most likely place for it to be preserved. And no, I can't take it on, sorry. (Genuinely sorry!) theorganist and Cavcraft 2

Cavcraft Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 You may as well also add me to the list, please.
theorganist Posted January 18, 2015 Author Posted January 18, 2015 I should have the photos by Tuesday. The car has been parked elsewhere and he is out for the rest of the day I will post them up as soon as I get them. If anyone wants to speak to him directly pm me your details and I can pass them on?
dugong Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 I like the sound of that and would be very interested in taking it on, please can I see the photo's open forum or my email [email protected] Are you aware of the cost of public transport? It's quite pricey.
Six-cylinder Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 Are you aware of the cost of public transport? It's quite pricey. That’s why I have a cunning plan to have it collected by one of you lot and moved down the country a bit at a time thus saving me £38.00! skattrd 1
Guest Lord Sward Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 This car, its not in Wollaston, Stourbridge by any chance?
dugong Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 That’s why I have a cunning plan to have it collected by one of you lot and moved down the country a bit at a time thus saving me £38.00! Exploitation! Brilliant.
Mr_Bo11ox Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 Six-cylinder knows how to play the shite game at a high level.
Lord Sterling Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 Mo_Delivery service available. I also have recent experience of driving 205 Diesels too.
theorganist Posted January 19, 2015 Author Posted January 19, 2015 @Lordsward it's in central Stourbridge. I am popping round tonight to get his contact details and will pass those on to those who pm me.
Lankytim Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 If it has a tow bar you can use it to A frame the C15 home. Six-cylinder 1
Six-cylinder Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 If it has a tow bar you can use it to A frame the C15 home. Can you double A frame because that would make it more economic if I buy another car to tow home! Then with the Rover 220 SLi I did have the idea that with a Mega bus ticket, they should A frame a car home for me just as they carry luggage for others! HMC 1
theorganist Posted January 19, 2015 Author Posted January 19, 2015 There is a very good train service to Stourbridge including through Chiltern trains from London so I can always pick you up from the station if you wanted to do it that way. Here are some pictures of the 205 sent by the seller this morning. If anyone wants his email address then pm me. I have already pm'd Mr. Six-Cylinder his email address.

andy18s Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 Im sure OAW is an Oswestry number,possibly Roy Evans as the dealer.....
Lacquer Peel Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 Does it have PAS? Ms._Peel has expressed a liking for one of these as her first car, but she has a condition which makes her joints a bit shit.
HMC Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 A shrewsbury plate -aw IIRC. What a total barg, looks nicely original what with the trims, rear plate and a tidy interior.
nacho man Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 These are brill cars anyway but at £200 its a steal. scruff 1
theorganist Posted January 19, 2015 Author Posted January 19, 2015 Does it have PAS? Ms._Peel has expressed a liking for one of these as her first car, but she has a condition which makes her joints a bit shit.No it hasn't I'm afraid. I asked as I thought it would be good for mum when she starts driving again and I don't think she will fancy the Horizon! Lacquer Peel 1
theorganist Posted January 19, 2015 Author Posted January 19, 2015 These are brill cars anyway but at £200 its a steal.Well in the email he sent me earlier he has mentioned £400. I think it is certainly worth that.
the judge Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 Roy Evans of liverpool? You live n learn eh Cavcraft 1
theorganist Posted January 23, 2015 Author Posted January 23, 2015 I have spoken to Christ (Six Cylinder) and he has been unable to come to a deal with Julian. So, the Peugeot is still for sale so if you want Julian's email address and haven't already done so please email me. Cheers.
Jim Bell Posted January 23, 2015 Posted January 23, 2015 I'm gonna guess £400. Or it would be sold. Doubling the price is a bold move Cotton. Let's see if it pays off.
theorganist Posted January 23, 2015 Author Posted January 23, 2015 Well when Julian initially spoke to me he did say £200, I think I did say that it might be worth more than that but didn't want to commit myself as it is hard to value cars of that age. When I bought my H reg Fiesta two years ago it was up for £250 on ebay and no one bid and I "won" it for £250. Although it had a short MOT it was tidy. Not long after I saw a similar aged one which looked in worse condition which was nearly double the price! When he emailed me later he said stated "£400?" I personally would have thought that £400 wouldn't be impossible if it is in good condition, which I believe it is. I think he will probably accept a bit less that though.
