Further info:
Prior to Peugeot's acquisition of Chrysler's European car divisions in 1978, the company was best known as the maker of bland but competent big Saloons. The little Gerrard Welter-penned 205 changed all that, becoming an instant hit and ultimately one of the most successful small European models of all time. The halo version was the GTi that is the standard by which other hot hatches are judged to this day, and was produced between 1984 and 1994 in both 1.6 and 1.9 guises. It was crowned 'Car of the Decade' by CAR Magazine in 1990 and also won the 'What Car? Car of the Year' award in 1984. This extremely tidy and original-righthand drive 1.6 GTi is finished in Red with predominantly Grey cloth trim. Its recently benefitted from an extensive machinal overhaul, attention to the body work and fresh re-paint plus wheel refurbishment and shod with new tyres. 'E81 CFC' displays 89,500 miles and is offered with a collection of photographs of the restoration plus old MOT's and current V5C document and the vendor presently classes the engine and transmission as 'very good' 'and the bodywork, paintwork and interior trim as 'excellent' and is offered with an MOT valid into July of next year.
