1999 Peugeot 206 GTi - Dagenham


Recommended Posts

My oldest decided to buy this from his mates Mum without saying a thing to us.. (I pulled a similar stunt on my parents when I was 15, but at least the car I got was insurable & there was room for it at my parents at the time!) He hasn't passed his test (or even his theory), & being a 2.0 hot hatch, its uninsurable for him, so its gotta go

That was a few months ago, his Mums Punto was turfed out into the street (& promptly got its mirror knocked off), now it needs to go.

Its mechanically fine, there's no warnings on the dash. He spunked £70 odd on a new battery. It is due a timing belt, & according to his mates Mum, the garage told her it needs roll bar links (included) & "brakes" for its next MOT (didn't specify what exactly "brakes" ment, likely just pads, but who knows).

Bodily its ok rust-wise, there's lacquer loss on the bonnet (its black, solvable with a tenners worth of vinyl) & a few dinks & marks here & there, but not terrible for a 19yo pug. Interior is very good (half leather). It has no stereo.

He wants his money back, £350, otherwise I`ll remove a few saleable bits & take it to the bridge, which seems a shame..

Its in Dagenham, off the A13. Its Sorned & the MOT ran out a few months back. You can change the roll bar links & whatever the brakes need & take it straight for an MOT if you want (but will need to be done promptly), otherwise will need to be towed.

Don’t take the Pisces out of Pieces.

As an aside, seems a barg m88.

No time for rofflez, Mum wants it gone so she can put her shite back on the drive!

My parents had an 806 with the same engine in and that could be made to go surprisingly well. With the same unit this must go like les clappeurs.

Always fancied a 180bhp version of these, easily obtainable within shed budget. Far nicer looking than the 207 as well. This looks a very acceptable little car for the money!

That's a real early one with the 15 wheels and non multiplex wiring, so more reliable than the later ones. My other half had one of these from nearly new. Even though they are lacking in power compared to most hot hatches there still a giggle to drive. Miss ours.

Sorry, I read it as 205 not 206 lol.

Add some noughts to the price then. :-)

205 GTi`s for threefitty? Those days are long gone sir!

Not quite but shrinking fast.

 

I wasn't aware they did a 180 bet they are a right hoot.
