If you don't mind travelling a bit then Tom Fenton on here is based in Rotherham and would certainly do a good job, but I'm not sure whether he's doing work for others at the moment or not. Worth asking though.

Shenpar motorsport of Melbourne are meant to be specialists and had a look over mine when I first got it 4 years ago.

 

The parts you mention could be done by any decent mechanic though. I don't know where about in Derby you are, but I'd recommend Rally Motors of Allestree wholeheartedly.

You could try my brother at www.yorkesport.co.uk as it is just down the A50 for you. He lives at Uttoxeter, but his unit is your side of Stoke, 2 mins from the Normacot junction. He has had many 205's and a lot of spares in stock, as you cannot get 205 servos new now.

 

I would recommend Tom if you want to venture north, and strongly advise you come along to the Peugeot Sport Club Derbyshire group meets as it will be a nice drive for you on a summers evening: https://www.facebook.com/groups/PSCukDerbyshire/

They've not existed for a while, there is apparently a business in the same location run by a former employee but they don't do 205s any more and didn't want to renew their advert on this site. The advert was linking to their website but it turned into pornography when they went out of business so we were forced to remove it!
