1.6 Gti Hill Climb Project

Hi guys, picked this up for a steal, the woman who owned it before me used it daily up until 12 months ago, she started it occasionally, but when it came to the MOT she found out the fuel pipe was leaking and threw in the towel, by the time i found out it was for sale i thought it was too late, someone had already put there name down on it, i offered more money and hoped for the best, luckily the chap didn't want to spend any more, and it was mine! heres a pic of how the poor old thing was sat when i fell in love with it!

today i T cutted the whole thing, fitted my new foglights, and some pressed steel plates i fitted a new bonnet stay and gave the engine a service, was a tad smokey, i think the top end may be a tad worn, just needs some work to the rear brakes and im going to put it in for an MOT

the 205 is now for sale, its taxed and mot'd, needs a few bits sorting, but for this age of 205 it is in very good condition,
