For sure, last red car I had went pink, although it was jap I can't be dealing with again.

 

Going to be building a car port next year before the sun damage begins

Haha hey Calvin, nice to see a few names on here I still recognise. 

 

Prices went a bit ballistic since I've been away then!..

 

Will get some better pics up soon of her, especially that phase 1.5 grey leathers!

Crazy how little rust there is compared to my MR2 MK1 that I've just let go...

 

I was very close to buying a DC2/5, but after seeing this little red one my heart took over, going to be a daily but she won't see heavy mileage.

 

She's just crying out for her pepperpots back on though.

 

Sam.

Indeed welcome back. Times have changed somewhat in the 205 scene with prices and also a big drive towards standard cars!

 

Pepperpots you say, have a look at a post of mine in the for sale section...!

Hey Tom & thanks for the heads up those wheels look really beautiful, will have to get Xmas and new year out the way first unfortunately...

 

I feel I'm mature enough now not to want to mess with the exterior/interior because it is a beautifully proportioned little entity outright.

 

I did get a feel when I was looking for this one that folks had swayed to reverting back to stock.

 

This one has had new shocks, a rebuilt rear beam and refurbed calipers fairly recently but I bet the bushes/mounts and few other little bits will need doing.

 

However with only 2 previous owners and 127k miles on she has been really well looked after, I was quite overwhelmed by the interior cleanliness and condition of the steering wheel.
