My 205 1.9 Gti Track car

Here we have my stunning Peugeot 205 1.9 Gti, The car was bought by myself completly stock 3 months ago in the three months i have transformed the car to the track demon you see today! The plan was to build the car for the odd track day and leisurely Sunday drive. I got a bit carried away and have ended up spending thousands to make the car what it is today. I have done 2 track days at Brands Hatch and the car performed superbly as you can guess theres not much that keeps with it in the corners!
. Heres a brief rundown of what has taken place since my ownership

Modifications
New Omp deep dish steering Wheel
New Momo Boss
New Clear indicators
Shotblasted and refurbed Speedline wheels
Near new Toyo R888 195/50/15 GG tyres only done 2 track days and 100 road miles
Sparco S-Light Circuit carbon fibre bucket seats
New alloy Sparco mounts
New alloy Spacro pedals
New Sparco touring gear knob
New programmable shift light
Near new Gaz adjustable suspension front and back (set very stiff)
Goodridge braided hoses
Solid rearbeam recently rebuilt
New front brake pads with SRF fluid
New inclosed air filter
New Halfords lightweight battery
Yamaha R1 carbon fibre exhaust sounds amazing but not to loud!
New aluminium lightweight radiator
Im a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to my cars all parts listed new were bought brand new by myself.
New headlights
New bright bulbs
New indicator lenses
New numberplates
New radiator pipes (bottom one which always rusts)
Refurbed air flow meter
Refurbed SAD
Custom made headlight air feed

Just had new head gasket cambelt and full service with receipt, it really is one of the best examples of a 205 I have come accross. Theres no rust underneath everythings as it should.

The only bad bits i can say about the car is it could probably do with being setup properly due to me doing it by ear and the front bumper has a few chips etc. Please dont expect a new car but it really is in very good condtion for its age. I am not a boyracer i have always wanted to own a 1.9 gti since a nipper its been a pleasure to own and it has always been very well looked after in my possession.

Only selling due to it being one of 5 cars i own and i can no longer afford to run them all so i am selling the lot and buying one sensible 6.3 AMG car!
