Re: Today’s want
It's a nope from me. Was never a fan of the looks anyway, but the colour scheme doesn't do anything to enhance itGG. wrote: ↑Thu Sep 16, 2021 3:18 pm Here's another:

The GT2 on the otherhand is flippin' lovely.
Re: Today’s want
Think I'm t'other way round. Prefer the 959 in burgundy to the GT2.
Re: Today’s want
Jeezus look at the commission those fookers are taking
I like the 959, but when I could get a CGT for less money……

Ar.
I love both but the 959 is another level again.
Re: Today’s want
I think if I was going to get a 205 I'd see if I could find one with a solid shell and an Mi16 swap now that nice original ones are getting into serious money.
An absolute unit

Re: Today’s want
I'm tempted to find a 205 to put the Activa's engine into, and then put a V6 in the Activa, both very straightforward swaps.
Always fancied a 205, great ride/handling balance, and they look great on those 1.9 GTI wheels.

Yeah XU10J2TE
2.0 8v Turbo, many Activas perished over the years to supply 205s with engine swaps!

Re: Today’s want
Sounds like a plan - although my preference would be xplant into a 309. Always had more of a soft spot for those.
Re: Today’s want
Get one of each, stripped out 205 with the 16v for trackdays and a turbo 309 to tow it

Re: Today’s want
It needs a little bit of tidying, but I've always fancied a sand rail. Even though I live nowhere near any beaches or dunes.

It's that level.

It’s already double what I paid for my integrale, but I love it

Re: Today’s want
That's very cheap, and scarily close.
Hmm, where will it fit
