Peugeot 205 STDT

I've owned several variants of 205 including the 1.9 GTI.

My present 205 is the STDT fitted with a 1.9 turbo/intercooled XUD9 engine.

She feels just as fast if not faster than my old 1.9 GTI.

For a 22 year old car, the gears are smooth, the steering to precise and she pulls like a train.

The car grips the road like a F1 race car and its just fun fun fun.

Plenty of smiles per gallon for £650.

My Peugeot 205 does the rare/cool car thing for me.

Commutes daily so [full size] spare wheel ready in hatch with chocks / jack etc. Well matched to UK speed limits and rural roads with plenty of hill climbing. [Pug 307 chosen for motorway work - but 205 DT for snow or flood]. Not For Sale [yet]. Generally puts a smile on faces.

This Peugeot is a superb little car - smile factor from ear to ear...

Good, cheap to run and reliable - go for it!

This is best car I have had yet!

The Peugeot 205 STDT is nippy and fun, and I am proud to show it off. The STDT is the best of all the models.

The Peugeot 205 is cool. Some people think because it's a diesel it's slow, but wow!

I bought my J reg 205TD a year ago and love it, it handles like its on rails, looks great with GTI alloys, can fit my Golf clubs in the boot. 100 though on the clock and purrs every time you turn the key. Excellent!!!!!!!!

The Peugeot 205 stdt was the first car I bought AND the best Diesel car I've ever driven. As a youngster I had so much fun with this car keep up with most GTI my top speen i got out of it was 135mph, ok it was going downhill at the time. Cheap to run unless you put your foot down then it goes down as quick as the speedo goes up.

The 205 GTI is by fare the best GTI you will ever be able to buy and the 205 stdt is really good aswell.

BEST CAR EVER APART FROM THE 205GTI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have loved the Peugeot 205 GTi for almost my entre life, its looks and potential to be a showcase car is huge. Frankly the guy who mentioned how his corolla gti16 was far better in power is most probably right, ive studied this car for at least two years now (starting early looking for the right one to buy) and yes the Peugeot 205 GTi has a little lack in power, but whats the difference when you can update the engine. The handling rocks any hot hatch on the road and the looks are far better than the strolla (corrola) besides why have a car thats very fast when it dosent "look a lot" plus there are many things and mods that can be added to increase power. The 205 is a "fun" mad looking car espesially for its value, and to any one who owns one, good bloody choice mate!
