BERTMAN 40 1 Cars Posted January 9, 2009 no idea but where are the driving lights, wheels, front valance and interior that make it a GT? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan 99 Posted January 9, 2009 It's a Talbot engine - fitted to some non-UK models. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Para 82 2 Cars Posted January 10, 2009 Thanks, i thought this might be talbot engine. First time I've seen such a engine in 205 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ablister 31 Posted January 10, 2009 what's the milage on it then? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SurGie 54 Posted January 12, 2009 no idea but where are the driving lights, wheels, front valance and interior that make it a GT? The GT does not come with the GTI valance, it just comes with the one thats on it, like my GT. It does look like a talbot engine but not xy7 or xy8 engine type like mine.

BERTMAN 40 1 Cars Posted January 12, 2009 my GT comes with a GTi front valance, as does every other ive seen... ...before this one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Emmy Seize 8 Posted January 13, 2009 (edited) It is an XY8 engine (the Talbot one). If you need any details on it, just let me know. Edited January 13, 2009 by Emmy Seize Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RossD 43 Posted January 13, 2009 Nope, it's not an XY8 engine, its the Talbot E1 or G1 (As mentioned above!) engine, which was also used in the 309 in the UK. Side cam, OHV. The XY8 engine was used before the TU engine. XY8 is an OHC engine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The XY8 engine was used before the TU engine. XY8 is an OHC engine. Ah, ok. I just noticed the filler cap and the routing of the ignition leads.... E1 is 1118 ccm and G1 is 1294 ccm right? Was this the engine also used in the Horizon? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
