Title: New to the forum and on the hunt for a car
Post by: Hotdog on August 20, 2016, 07:58:54 AM
Hi my name is James , I've been thinking about getting back into something French for sometime now!
I used to own a very tidy 309gti which I loved when I was younger , so I'm on the hunt for another or possibly a 205.
Does anyone have any leads on any tidy cars for sale or possibly for sale in the future?
I would really like to start with a car that's as mint as possible , top dollar paid!
Thanks , James

Welcome James

Good luck with the search, mint cars are rare, most older Peugeots are a labour of love these days.

I would expect to pay 10,000 for a good condition 205 GTI, lesser for a 309.

welcome along!

once you get to about 10 posts I think, then you're allowed access to our for sale section which currently has a very tidy 205gti for sale (with mi16 engine fitted - livens these cars up to no end!).
also, member peedubs is selling his 309gti track car at the moment which wants a little finishing of the finer details

add another seat and get an authority card and wofs will be no problem. street legal track car!!

Cheers guys , I'm quite happy to wait for the right car. Mi16v would be nice but I want it looking very stock apart from that, so that rules out a track car.

The buyer might already be on fastfrogs, but keeping a low profile due to possible hate mail  :-X
