106 rallye

[JonnyBoy]

the trail of the illusive mint 205 gti has gone cold..

sights have been set on a 106 rallye... not too much $$ though.

I figure chances of finding a nice rallye are higher than finding a straight 205.

any clues?

findit isnt working.. any other sources that the local rag and autotrader?

[S8ight]

have a look on the loot website, have had a few bargains from it

I know where there is a mint 205 1.9 that might be for sale. However he wont be 'giving' it away.

See www.106rallye.co.uk, they have a for sale section and a good forum.

Is it the 1.3 rallye or the 1.6 your thinking about?

Heres my 1.3:

See member section for mine and march 6 run for photos from the last run out we had on the cat and fiddle..

Oil leaks and noisy tappets are common and I've just had to fit new drive shafts and hub bearings as they were getting noisy which also seems faily common.  

The good news is they are galvanised so rust shouldn't be a problem.

They are great fun to drive.

Its a real rev happy engine, great for country lane driving.  When driven carefully i can get about 48mpg from mine as well.

1992 PEUGEOT 205 GTi 1.9,

K reg. very rare car in excellent original condition, all usual extras, plus 10 disc CD player, long tax/ MoT,. £2,150 . ono.

Tel: 07967 448621

Nowt to do with me, just saw it in the trader.  

Used to have one of these in this fetching Laser Green colour.  Not many original 1.9's left in this colour!  Should have green carpet and black half leather with black / green cloth inserts.  Nice!!!!!  

Brings back some great memories!!!!  I can remember the looks on passengers faces throwing it into bends at a rate of knotts, knowing it would come out other side alright!

Kirk put the white steelies back on it!!!

The previous owner put the alloys on.  I want to put the steelies back on, but they are really tatty and need new tyres.

I've been trying to get hold of a set of second hand S2 steelies as they are wider than the S1's, but for now the Alpines are staying on.
