I did a similar thread... I copy and pasted this info on a word document, printed it off, and did all my checks when i viewed the car with the printed info.

 

[Spiky]

cheers for that, much appreciated

Great Minds huh Spiky

How did you get on?

 

[Spiky]

i'm off now to go look at 56k one

 

[Spiky]

x reg
56k
fsh
nice genuine exmaple, well looked after

here are some pics i just took

looks cramped in there, but my 205 only has 3 shocks and i could lift a push it over any further..lol

Spikey from passionford?

 

[Spiky]

DAMM what gave it away??? ...lol

 

[Bazzon]

Reconised the 205,

 

[Spiky]

ah cool

yours is a good spec now then

what are the engine like for tuning? i must be honest i want it completely standard, and i'm looking for a std airbox for it as thats the ony mod it has

 

[Bazzon]

We have a standard air box in the loft, but dont think its worth sending to cardiff

 

[Spiky]

how about if i send you some bear tokens?

20? 30?

i dont want this filter...lol

 

[Bazzon]

will see if i can get a price to mail it tomorrow when i get back from the British superbikes and will send you a PM on here or passionford.

 

[Spiky]

that will be awesome dude , much appreciated it

 

[AndyFRS]

Hehe nice purchase there , what plans you got for it Steve?

I been thinking about selling our Zetec-S and getting a 172 sport, only thing thats putting me off so far is they seem to have so many faults like electrics, leaks etc.

 

[Spiky]

the plans i got are to remove the foam filter and fit a std filter.

then leave as std and drive


then drive

then drive


...lol

nice reliable daily car, the mods get done on the 205

 

[lemonnobby]

Have had no faults with mine, it may be up for sale soon PM me if you want to talk
