Oh Bother, I've Bought Another One

Recommended Posts

I'm now the proud owner of this little beauty.

I hadn't intended to buy another 205, I certainly don't have any need for it, but it was looking for a new owner and the price was right so I had it!

 

It's a standard 1.9 (D6B) with some buckets, a cage, some Saxo wheels and was built up for some road rallying but the guy didn't get round to it. He recently put some B4's on it (not my cup of tea but nice all the same) and some new discs and pads all round, some spots and a Quaife quickrack.

 

It starts, stops and looks the part.

 

If I'm honest I'm not quite sure what to do with it, I could keep it or break it or just sell it as it is, I'm going to clean it when it stops raining and see whats what.

 

Any suggestions let me know.

Nothing constructive to say but those wheels offend my retinas.

 

If it's all in good running nick there's no point in breaking. What's it like rust wise?

It doesn't seem too bad on the rust front. I had a cursory poke around a couple of weeks back when I learnt it was coming up for sale. Then I waited. Then I pounced!!

 

The paint isn't great, it has been re laquered at some point by a blind man on a galloping donkey and there are quite a few runs. :lol:

 

It's not a bad thing, I suppose the logical thing to do is to prod it a bit more and do a few road rallies with it as it is.

 

Of course the more logical thing is to mot it and sell it on.

 

Oh, I'm sorry about the wheels, clearly not my choice either.

I don't think so, the guy I bought it off doesn't get on well with computers!!
