sounds like a faulty alternator perhaps, have you got a multimeter you can use to measure the battery voltage with?

Sounds like an earth problem to me, does the 205 take its earth from the aerial? I had a similar problem on a different car and it was due to a bad aerial connection.

Another vote for possible alternator fault. My stereo would turn off every time i pressed the brake pedal and this turned out to be the alternator!
