Some pictures of the 205. So far have fitted -25mm Spax front springs, replaced track rod ends and drop links, sorted out some wiring (with more to do still), replaced drivers side red insert as old 1 was held on with self tappers. Desperately need a fuel level sender as ran out of fuel once, but parts seem to be a nightmare to get hold of.

















Thought about fitting the later spec indicators and rear lights but decided to keep it more period with there being not much left.

Are the green ones not some kind of limited edition? Or is my dithering old mind getting confused?

To start with they were. 1200 of them, 1990, Phase 1.5 cars. 300 1.6's in Sorrento Green, 300 1.9s in Sorrento Green, 300 1.6's in Miami Blue and 300 1.9s in Miami Blue. Then it became a colour option on the Phase 2 cars. These have a limited edition interior though and had factory P/S and a couple other bits.

Not seen one this colour!

Very cool mate, looks tidy too. Mate has a Miami blue one (think that's the name?) such cool cars. Hang on to this, values will increase with the pedigree

I hadn't seen 1 in ages either, but just last week a Miami Blue 1 passed me round my way lol.

Ive put in for a lock-up and if one pops up in my court then it will be getting put away but the mileage i think will hold it back from making decent money.

If the miles are big then true, it wouldn't be concourse money. But if the condition is true and it's largely original, the demand will outstrip supply easily and it will go up.

Worth hanging on to matey

I desperately need a fuel level sender from a phase 1.5/2 car if you have 1.

That looks very nice and don't see many about. On saying that, on the way to the missus' work a bloke has one on his drive sat there gathering moss etc, convertible jobby left windows down etc been sitting there for a good few months.
