Key Facts

VEHICLE OVERVIEW

A delightfully original and unmolested phase 1.5 205 GTI 1.6 which has covered only 67,400 miles with comprehensive documentation to support the mileage. It has had only 3 owners in total throughout the last 32 years and has always been cherished.

Supplied new to its first owner on the 3rd August 1989 by the Peugeot agency, Clerkenleap Motors in Worcester, ordered in Cherry Red with Quartet seat fabric, factory options of Electric windows, Central locking and Sliding sunroof were specified. The original new car sales invoice is included within the history file.

The car was serviced no less than 15 times up until the owner part exchanged for a new Peugeot in January 1999.

Subsequently, the car was then sold by Regal Garage (Peugeot) in Bromsgrove to its 2nd owner who kept the car for over 16 years, used sparingly and maintaining well.

Due to ill-health the owner was unable to use and enjoy the car and it was kept safely garaged from 2007 until 2013 when the family considered selling the car. 

A further 2 years passed and after careful vetting an agreement was made to sell the car to its next owner.

The car was then subjected to some sympathetic mechanical recommissioning by the new owner, 

all of which ensuring the 205 drives as it was first intended, and it does exactly that. 

Everything works as it should – even down to the factory sunroof vacuum seal!

We stress that the car isn’t a restored example as it’s been so well kept over time and not been necessary, it’s incredibly original and in lovely condition throughout. It always attracts admiring comments wherever you go and an absolute pleasure to own and drive. It would sit very nicely in a collection in our opinion.
