Got The Old 205 Out

[mechanicalrepairs 8]

Well as i was a little bored and the missus went out to the pictures with a few friends i decided to get the old gal out and take her down to the garage.

 

Whilst there i gave her a bath, it amazes me when i wash this car how nice it really is, once i was happy it was clean i decided to get it on the mot ramp and put a fresh ticket on it (the old one expired over 6 weeks ago)

 

On the ramp she goes-

 

 

Started out checking all the lights but weirdly i had no front indicators and the drivers side repeater also didnt want to play ball, after some head scratching i managed to sort it out.

 

This came in very handy-

 

 

Getting this out was a mission in itself-

 

Once fixed we had light-

 

 

Along with the rest-

 

 

The emissions test was pleasing to see, means all the hassle of fitting the gti6 lambda and the 205 original cat modified to fit worked well-

 

 

Heres the emissions-

 

 

 

 

 

The rest of photo's are just random-

All tucked up again in the garage now, done a total of 16 miles from last years test:o

 

It was great driving it today and the attention it gets is great, stopped at the traffic lights in town and a subaru stopped next to me, when the lights went green he was still sat there as he had been looking over the car:lol

Looks a really nice car Carl

here is to putting more miles than 16 you done last year

[Atari Boy 11]

Looks a very tidy 205 Carl. I like the rear window sticker especially

[SurGie 54]

OMG only 16 miles, thats less than my project 205 and its got no engine in, its just been put in and out the garage every week .

 

The Miami blue is my second favorite 205 GTI colour after the Graphite grey. It looks superb Carl, im so looking forward to mine being finished some time next year now due to funds.

 

The sticker looks great but because its at a wonky angle it would bug the hell out of me

Tell me about it, i got a few digits stuck to the glass and couldnt remove it, it was either wonky or not at all, to be honest i think i may end up removing it.

It is indeed mate, Chris with the grey 106 told me it was your house when I mentioned to him there were always gti6's outside. I've got a black 205 Mi16 on Goodwoods. I live in the corner house in the little close bit over the road with the orange van outside.
