Description
L'Atelier des 1000 is pleased to offer for sale this superb Peugeot 309 GTI Phase 2, presented in a particularly desirable configuration with its original Miami Blue metallic colour, combined with a perfectly matched black and blue velvet interior. The 309 GTI embodies the GTI spirit of the 90s at its purest: a light build, playful handling, a racy engine and proven reliability - the perfect fusion of the 205 GTI and the 405 MI16. A true rival to the Golf GTI, it still shines today for its versatility, sharp chassis and timeless driving pleasure. A genuine rival to the Golf GTI, it still shines today thanks to its versatility, its sharp chassis and its timeless driving pleasure. The most accomplished version of the 309, the GTI Phase 2 benefits from a front axle derived from the 405 Mi16, bringing precision and bite to a chassis already unanimously acclaimed for its balance.
The 1. 9L XU9 engine develops 160 bhp and is mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox with precise control. The model we are presenting was registered in 1992, has 179, 000 km and comes from a fine private collection in which it has been kept since 2017.

The chassis is sound, balanced and precise, the suspension is firm without being uncomfortable, and the braking is powerful and well-balanced.
