From the seller: “For sale is my Peugeot 205 gti.
Phase 1.5
I have very recently bought this car as a project but I think I’ve been a bit over ambitious! As much as I’d like to, I do not have the time or the know how to get the work done to the car that it needs. I also have a couple of other projects on the go (you might notice my mini in the background on some of the pics)
Anyway, I will be as honest as I can be about the car and what’s needed and I’ve tried to show the cars true state as best as I can in the photos.
The car was a barn find, and had been stored since 2004.
It belonged to a farmer and his son.
I can’t find any previous MOT history (registered as farm vehicle?) but the car had been taxed.
It is certainly as you can see, a spares or repairs project for someone but it is a good base.”

Some of the best bits of motoring history aren’t cars or motorcycles at all. Sometimes they’re the things that used to sit on the counter behind them. A mate recently cleared out an old motorcycle and bicycle shop that had closed down, and knowing my weakness for old shop display material, he saved ...
There are restoration projects, there are brave restoration projects, and then there is HTM 457F. We found this battered Ford Escort sitting among an extraordinary collection of old cars in Cambridgeshire, and it’s fair to say its best days appear to be some considerable distance behind it. The front end is badly damaged. Corrosion ...
