205's Existing In Scrapyards

[sensualt101 31 1 Cars]

i thought i would make this thread for any members who know of a 205 in a scrapyard as we often get single threads for the odd car but it would be useful to have a thread compiling all scrap survivors as spares for 205's are getting thinner on the ground.

 

so please post if you know of a 205 in a scrapyard giving as many details as possible such as model , condition , colour , registration and the location/yard details

 

it will be of use to many and of course could mean some more 205's getting saved! as some of our members ( hardcore restorers! ) love a challenge!

 

also rarities may be found like the sole yellow 205 gti for instance ( anyone know where that is? ) also there could be a couple of 1fm's or griffes hiding

 

many thanks

Found this car in a scrap yard in West Wales today. It had an old tax disc in the glove box - taxed on 02/12/08 in Kingsbury, Tamworth, Staffs. It also had PSOOC sticker on the driver side rear window and 205 GTI Drivers.com sticker on the rear window. Front seats had gone but the rears were full leather. Dark grey, sunroof model.

A recent phone round of my local (Exeter) scrappies found nothing. These were Woodbury Car Breakers, White Horse, All Parts and Kirton. Don't remember any being round for a few years now.

I have had a few good 205 bits from Kirton, mostly new bits ie phase1 downpipe and new head light units. Very helpful people i thought and the last thing i bought from them was a very good set of 306gti brakes for a modest £60.

There was at least 9 205 GTis and a few 309 GTis the last time I went. And a nice stack of 309 GTi bumpers with the lights in laid up.

 

I'm keeping quiet too

[harryskid 193]

Would this be at Castle Cary ? or near Somerton?

Sh**e!!!Why do i not know about this place??I don't exactly need anything but i find such places fascinating!!!

i am sad to see so many people who know of cars in scrap yards with 205's replying to this thread but say they are keeping quiet??? your input to this thread is useless rather than useful!!!

 

here is one i have found! apart from the fact it appears to have no keys or audio equipment it looks like a car that could easily be saved! anyone? surely somebody will find this car of use?

I think people dont really want to let others know so as to stop the hoarders taking all the good bits that will sell for loads in the future.

 

Always good to know the whereabouts of scrap years that are hard to find.

The yard in question has had the GTis for years. They are mostly complete with minimal bits sold off of them. All the ones I had a nosey at had full interiors, filled with about an inch of moss and were rotten through. First discovered it about 4 years ago and then went there recently. Nothing had moved around in that section by the looks of it. I asked about a set of speedlines, 100 for the wheels alone then the condition of the tyres depend on the final price. Its not surprising nothing is ever removed from them.
