Recommended Posts

Joe67

Hey am Joe from Edinburgh,am joining the site on a search for my old red 205gti,I know its still about and hopefully someone here can help. Its a red 205 gti that was once used in some shows with eccosse many years ago,it had a 1.9 engine and twin 45's carbs(think they were) when i owned it but now runs a mi16.It also has a nice bodykit(cant remember name) wasnt ott and looked nice,also something that made the 205 stand out was the rear lights,the standered lights were replaced with the round lorry lights and also had another two on the boot next to each rear light.Any help finding this would be appreciated.Cheers

Give Diane at Ecosse a call as I guess you got the bits from her and she keeps her ear to the ground. I've not seen anthing to that spec recently, but some pics would help!

How can you not remember the reg or even have a pic of a car you are trying to find?

 

Don't even know what the point in this is!

Ditto this!!How can you expect to find something without giving a reg number?An almost impossible and pointless task!!

We don't allow for numberplates to be posted anyway.

 

I remember two 205's with 4 round lights in the back, but one was Miami Blue and other one was Damien's Dimma.

I know this was a rule classically, but yet another strange one as loads have been posted recently and there's one posted just above that very comment!

We don't recommend it, but it is not specified within our Rules & Guidelines, so we loosely moderate it.

 

It is not allowed to have a (real) numberplate username though.

 

 

any pics or links to Damien's Dimma

 

It's this one:

Can't find any more pics of it at the moment, but I know they're out there somewhere :).

Pretty sure that this is the same one that's been doing the rounds on ebay for a while (I doubt there's more than 1 that looks like that anyway!)

I remember this car way back when the rear lights were done ('93/'94).

 

Interior was re-trimed in leather.

 

Couple who had it also had a 405 Mi16 which had 17's on....Woooo now, but unheard of back then

I think you need to move on. Henry Yorke's now famous tort about comparing a car you onced owned to an ex girlfriend may be very apt for you and if someone could post that infamous quote, it would make my day.
