Horrible car for sale - £250


Recommended Posts

Posted

Afternoon chaps,

I have lost a considerable amount of my storage so somewhat upsettingly I have to move things on.

First up...

1986D Peugeot 205GRD 1.8 n/a diesel as seen at Cholmondely this year

MOT - 17/8/17
Tax - TGYH
Mileage - 192,500ish

Colour - Antelope Beige with stylish rat look offside wing

Interior - Two tone beige and brown with "sports" blue drivers seat
 

 

To be honest I don't really want to sell this let alone anything, but needs must.

Timing belt and water pump replaced at 186k-ish (May 2014), alternator done last month, offside front wheelbearing done in August, head gasket last noted as done 11/09, rear hubs in 2008. More or less every bill detailed from 1990 until 2012, and most bills since. 4 previous owners.

It's absolutely not perfect - it looks rough as arses to be honest, but mechnically it's bob on. Lucas pump so no veg I'm afraid. Nearside front disc is warped, new front discs and pads are with the car but not fitted 'cos the workshop has been chocablock of late. Heater blower is inop but there is mega amounts of heat through the vents at speed, gets quite toasty. There is an occasional knock from underneath (exhaust I think), another occasional knock from the NSF suspension and the intermittent wiper function is sketchy at times. Rear door seals leak. All appears solid underneath, has been undersealed many times. My tame MOT tester reckons it's solid and my prodding with a screwdriver over the pit backs that up. Tyres are all present and of somewhat dubious origin, but are recent enough and have good tread.

Price advertised is £250 but any serious offer from a shiter will be considered before I throw it to the wolves on ebay.

That is so bad it's tempting!

 

I remember driving one years ago & getting bored before I finished timing a 0-60 dash*

If i didn't already have a leggy PSA car from the same era I'd be all over that. Literally just the lack of parking is putting me off.

 

Good luck with the sale.

That's fantastic (genuinely fantastic) an absolute no-brainer of a buy for someone.

Where is this located? , my friend is interested

 

Somewhere near Glasgow I think.

Car is located Barrhead near Glasgow at the minute; 10 minutes from Glasgow City Centre, 15 minutes from Glasgow Airport, 30ish seconds from Barrhead Station.

Great things! My one of this spec (1.8 N/A) had 316K miles on it when sold on and was still going strong.

Is that a special edition where the front offside wing is specially designed to match the front offside seat?

I reckon this would roffle quicker than a Linford Christie with turbo shoes

Roffle is an issue because Paypal want me to post myself to their office to prove I exist and if I use her account I'll never see any of it ever again.

More than happy to collect PayPal funds then bank transfer to you, if that helps

I love this wee thing. I have sat in it and marvelled at its 205ness.

 

I have also never seen it in daylight. This may be a good thing.

I was going to write, 'that really is a horrible car for sale',

But it's not.

 

Sadly I am already one vehicle over maximum (acceptable) capacity and appear to have drunkenly entered into another fucking raffle. I am unable to be of any assistance.

Hnnnnnng I'd dearly love this but I'm all out of parking options at the minute with the micra, and clean out of cash with that Xmas thing.....

A raffle on the other hand......
