]]>177463Tue, 09 Jun 2026 21:11:27 +0000Goodbye H853 DBD, Hello F708 TAC - 1989 Cherry Red Detailing Progress Threadhttps://www.205gtidrivers.com/forums/topic/177447-goodbye-h853-dbd-hello-f708-tac-1989-cherry-red-detailing-progress-thread/ So following on from 12 years of ownership with H853 DBD and a long progress thread here:

 

https://www.205gtidrivers.com/forums/topic/156908-body_work-1991-gti-steel-grey-detailing-progress-thread/?page=18#google_vignette

 

After a bit of deliberation I sold H853 DBD on Thursday last week. Essentially my ultimate spec 205 has been a cherry red non sunroof 1.9, Phase 1.5. One of these came on the market recently and I put up a  tenantive advert for my existing steel grey 1.9.  Within a day a local guy came and viewed it and bought it for my asking price and I did a good deal on the cherry red, so it was all systems go - very bittersweet after 12 years and a labour of love, but time to move it on as it was getting a bit leggy and needed some work doing to it in the not too distant (front end mainly) and I didn't want to go down the full resto route. 

 

H853 DBD was collected Thursday night last week after my new cherry red F708 TAC arrived with me in the morning!

 

it's a lovely looking thing and has had alot spent on it over the last few years inc a full exterior respray, new sills and countless new parts. Ironically it's had the exact same bodywork done that I had done to my old one (rear bumper mounts and full sills), as well as alot of the same engine and running gear parts changed. 

 

Immediate plans for it are:

 

- Passenger side inner wing repair as it's just starting to split, so want to nip it in the bud before it starts. 

- Rear axle needs raising a touch as it's too low. 

- Rear bump stops are missing so those will be replaced. 

- New clutch and linkage set. 

- Remove stainless exhaust and fit standard one - stainless is way too loud at my age!

- Remove strut brace

 

Really chuffed with this one so far - it's all complete and hasn't been messed with and has been well looked after.

Once much loved but had been under a cover for 8-9 years so I took her on to get her back on the road 

 

She needs welding ,suspension ,brakes and everything you would expect of a car that's stood so long

Had a test drive earlier and she still pulls very well !
