Description
Hello, L'atelier des 1000 is pleased to offer for sale this superb 205 GTI 1. 9 in a classic and racy configuration with its red dress and its specific interior pattern matched with red carpets.
This bombshell, whose reputation is well established, is sure to delight nostalgic collectors.
This model is French and was registered on 19/ 04/ 1988, its last owner having acquired it in 2013. The vehicle has its original booklets and logbook as well as a file of invoices and various technical checks enabling its history to be retraced. The bodywork was completely restored a few years ago before receiving a quality paint job, and the whole is in perfect condition and has retained all its lustre.
The upholstery, which has also been redone, is quite simply superb. It is in perfect condition and immediately takes you back to the atmosphere of the 80's. The headlining and carpets are in very good condition, the dashboard is not cracked and the instrumentation works correctly. The original steering wheel shows no particular wear.
The original sunroof is functional and brings a significant amount of light into the cabin. As quality is in the detail, many small parts have been replaced to give this GTI a second lease of life.
A great deal of mechanical work was carried out between the end of 2024 and the beginning of the year, including mechanical servicing, replacement of the timing system, rebuilding of the gearbox and replacement of various cooling hoses. Mechanically, the car is performing wonderfully: the engine is in good health and revs up quickly. The short 5-speed gearbox comes from a 1. 6 version, which makes it more dynamic, so it was rebuilt at the beginning of the year.
The chassis behaves well, the suspension does its job and the braking is perfectly balanced and effective. The steering is precise and the Michelin tyres are in very good condition. Delivery possible in France Standard French registration Possible transfer to collection Possible warranty up to 36 months In view of the condition of the vehicle and the work carried out, we are asking €34, 990, trade-in and exchange possible.
