Default Baby Pink 205 1.4 Challenge Car

Hi all, been reading on the forum for ages now, just never got around to posting anything!

I know a few of you on here are into you 205's so i thought i would post this one up.

Being a 19 year old apprentice with a healthy (well maybe not..) appitite for anything containing alcohol, it is quite difficult to afford to get into any motorsport but my mate had been looking around and came across the 205 challenge which is about as entry level as i think you can get. he offered to put most of the mone up for the car etc, he just needed a co-driver.

the cars are all pretty much standard, just with rollcage, seats, harnesses, plumbed in fire extinguisher and all the other saftey bits. the engine is stock making it purely on driver skill and setup of the car. there are some parts youre allowed to do like controlled suspension etc.

we started looking around at cars and decided it was worth buying one ready built

well anyway, this is what arrived today...











Yes its pink!! it was rallied last season by 2 girls who did quite well, we rekon the pink is kinda cool so its staying, although it is only big sheets of vinyl so if we change our minds its not a huge job

there is no drivers seat in the pic as the first thing we noticed is that one of the mounts were ripped apart.

we ended up taking the carpet out, as there is no need for it, this is how it looked at the end of play




and the nakered seat mount


the plan is to tidy up the inside, put everything back in, and thrash the balls off it!!


all coments welcome, good or bad!
