    🐒 I BOUGHT A CRAZY ROAD LEGAL RALLY CAR! NEXT LEVEL PEUGEOT 205 GTI
    Peugeot 205 GTI Info:
    The 1.6 litre GTI was launched in 1984, and came with a XU5J engine, producing 105 PS (77 kW; 104 hp), for the 1987 model year the XU5J received the cylinder head with larger valves thus becoming XU5JA. The new engine was quoted for 115 bhp (86 kW; 117 PS). The 1.9 litre GTI came with an XU9JA engine producing 128 PS (94 kW; 126 hp), although later models with a catalytic converter produce 122 PS (90 kW; 120 hp). Internally these engines are very similar, the main differences on 1.9 litre versions being the longer stroke, oil cooler, and some parts of the fuel injection system. The shorter stroke 1.6 litre engine is famed for being revvy and eager, while the 1.9 litre feels lazier and torquier. Outside the engine bay the main differences between the 1.6 GTI and the 1.9 GTI are half-leather seats (1.9 GTI) vs. cloth seats (1.6 GTI); and disc brakes all-round (1.9 GTI) vs. discs at the front and drum brakes at the back (1.6 GTI); as well as the 14-inch (360 mm) alloy (Speedline SL201) wheels (1.6 GTI) vs. 15-inch (380 mm) (Speedline SL299) alloys (1.9 GTI).
    The 205 is still often treated as a benchmark in group car tests of the newest GTI models or equivalent. Peugeot itself has never truly recreated this success in future GTI models, although they came very close with the highly regarded GTI-6 variant of the Peugeot 306. A cabriolet version of the 205, known as the CJ/CT/CTI, was designed and partially assembled by Pininfarina of Italy. The CTI version offered the same plastic arches and wheels as the 1.6 GTI. Some later models incorporated the catalysed 1.9-litre engine.
    Peugeot 205 GTI 1.9
    The main aesthetic difference between the GTI/CTi versions and other 205 models were the plastic wheel arches and trim, beefier front and rear bumper valances. The shell also underwent some minor changes, including larger wheel arches (to suit the larger wheels on the GTI and CTi), and the suspension was redesigned and sat lower on the GTI with stiffer springs, different wishbones and a drop-linked anti-roll bar.
    With the early success of the 205 GTI in Europe, Motor Trend reported in 1984 that Peugeot was seriously considering adding it to its US lineup, even though Peugeot had a more upmarket image in the United States.[citation needed] Nothing ever came of such rumours, however, and any talk of Peugeot expanding its presence in US became moot when the company was forced to pull out in 1991.
    Sales of the GTI in the United Kingdom in the early 1990s were badly hit by soaring insurance premiums, brought about by high theft and 'joyriding' of cars of this sort. Increasingly stringent emissions regulations meant the 1.6 GTI went out of production in 1992, while the 1.9-litre was sold for a couple more years thanks to re-engineering of the engine to enable it to work properly with a catalytic converter, which dropped power to 122 PS (90 kW; 120 hp).
    In October 2020 Peugeot announced that their heritage brand "l'Aventure Peugeot" would make a factory restoration program for the 205 GTI available in 2021 as part of the company's 210th anniversary celebration.[11] This program is intended to be expanded to other Peugeot (and possibly Citroën) models later, but will begin with the 205 GTI as it is one of the most desirable Peugeot built that is also available in large numbers. The cars will be restored to as-new condition, with certain no longer available parts being made on 3D-printers.
    The styling of the 205 is often thought to be a Pininfarina design, although Gerard Welter claims it is an in-house design; Pininfarina only styled the Cabriolet.[3] It is often credited as the car that turned Peugeot's fortunes around. Before the 205, Peugeot was considered the most conservative of France's "big three" car manufacturers, producing large saloons such as the 504 and 505, although it had entered the modern supermini market in 1973 with the Peugeot 104.

    The xu10 lump is absolutely fabulous in these things, with a set of Jenveys like that it's pure heavenly sound. Satchel shift as well is THE best gear shift you can have in a 205 without going full sequential.
    Get yourself out on the new asphalt rally championship in the UK, that looks like a proper tarmac weapon. You'll need a proper harness bar added to the cage though.

    The shifter is a satchshift had one in my 106 one of the best mods I did to the car nice to see some French on the channel I have had 5 Peugeot 106’s 2 rallyes a gti and a couple of home builds with engine swaps always liked the 205 gti you should look into bringing it to pugfest at Prescott hill climb when it’s next on would be good to see that shredding peaceee 👍🏻.

    @monkeylondon. Was a pleasure to see you and your pug mate.
    It's my s14 you trashed and it's new to me and non turbo.
    Not sure if you'll see this but that pug is insane

    Sick car man, a true icon. Modern pug’s have been a little underwhelming by comparison. That said I absolutely adore my 208 GTI, a proper drivers car.

    What a machine... sounds amazing with the itb's and headers. I'm lucky owner of a phase 1 xsara vts with this engine and even with 390 kg more weight that thing is a blast to drive (stock except a +10hp tune). I plan on taking it to track days once I get it fully serviced, needs cambelt, brakes ect., Luckily the parts are cheap and the car is easy to work on :)

    My first car was a 106, after that I had a 307, another 307 and then a 207. Weirdly, it was never really because I was a Pug fan, it just turned out they were what I could afford at the time. I absolutely LOVED the 106 though, it was like a little go-kart and nothing ever went wrong with it. Cost f**k all to run too. I always wish I'd never sold it haha. All the other ones though, constant electrical problems.

    Got a gti im building myself, got an mi16 in a million bits, but frankly, the rebuild cost for the mi16 isn't worth it for the power, I'm looking into either a Honda swap, or going more extreme with a sierra drive train stuck underneath and running the old 2ltr Ford twin cam.

    Love the older Peugeots, new ones are kinda watered down and way heavier. My fav from the old days is probably the 306 GTI. Although I did own a blue 3 door P reg 106 diesel and loved it to bits. Hope you take this one rallying, would love more content of this car.

    Older Peugeot hatches were the best. Pre 206. Things like this car 106, 306, clio 16v, William's and even saxo's in my opinion were a proper hoot to drive like a bit of a dick. I miss the ones I've owned.

Love your videos every one of them content is spot on vibe is spot on and the tunes are banging 👌
