Superb, as a daily?

 

[paul]

for the miles i do, might make more financial sense than the 182 thats plummets every day

 

[The_Pirate]

Are they reliable?

Not sure what they normally go for but that's alot of monies for a 205...surely it's not going to appreciate much more ?

Why not try and find a bit of a project one (for peanuts) and make the profit yourself?

 

[paul]

looking currently for classic status car to hold value ideas welcome, id have another mini but have had loads lol

 

[Daniel]

Williams 1.

 

[Daniel]

That 205 is laughable. It's not worth half that.

 

[paul]

williams 1 is a good idea tbh

 

[Paul172sport]

White the best colour? Surely you'd want a 1.9 im Miami blue. Neighbors had one in the day loved it.

 

[Fletcher]

Shame it's not a 1.9 TBH.

 

[alex-avfc]

I like that 205 being one of the early 1.6s. It's been up for ages though simply because it's massively overpriced, no one will pay that.

 

[Daniel]

If it was Miami blue 1.9 with power steering and 20,000 miles from new, I could understand the asking price.

I sold an absolutely mint 1.6 about 2 years ago. Full history and pretty much unmarked. I had it up for £1999 for a long time (2months iirc!) before I sold it.

 

[alex-avfc]

Yeah I wouldn't want to give much more than 2 bags for it. I think they are playing on it being on of the earliest ones and having low(ish) miles. Look at that sagged bolster though:dead:

There's another B reg 1.6 for sale somewhere that's been fully restored, up for £10k!!!!!!

 

[The_Pirate]

Are the 1.9's better than the 1.6's i gather?

 

[Munson]

Bit of a fad colour. Lol.

Has to be 1.9 or you're a homo. IMO.

 

[The_Pirate]

I'd rather a Williams in all honesty!

 

[.Stevo.C.]

I'd rather a Williams in all honesty!

Williams 3 on eBay just now with 36,800 miles on the clock looks mint. £5,795.

 

[Dave..]

You've wanted to sell your clio more often than I have Paul!

If you're wanting to buy a car as a financial investment, you're onto a loser straight away. Your money is safer elsewhere.

 

[Munson]

309 GTi is the true hero choice.

 

[paul]

309 gti sounds nice

So I see...

 

[alex-avfc]

309 GTi is the true hero choice.

Now you're talking...rarity, plus more weight over the back equalling better handling...Love them in red!

Was a totally mint one for sale recently at under £2k, someone would've got a nice car.

 

[Rob]

Mental price. Daniel's one was a better colour, better condition and less than half the price. It's not even got the best engine ffs
