The Appeal
Peugeot hit on an instant classic when they released the 205 GTI in 1984, since its launch it has been heralded as the best hot hatch, EVER. With the values of the 205 GTI on an upward trend over the past few years, this is not only a great car to drive but it is a sensible car to purchase too.

This example is fitted with the latter and is now presented in great condition showing little signs of its age, the next owner will be getting one excellent example.
This car offers you the chance to ‘meet your hero’, many of you would have grown up with a poster of a 205 on your bedroom wall. Or you may have grown up reading the reviews of such cars in auto car magazine. Either way, this will be one of those cars that you will always love. It'll be an excellent addition to your garage.

Whoever gets to own this car next and sit within the interior will be a very happy person, with such an engaging experience thanks to the three pedals and manual gearbox it truly is a proper driver’s car.
The Exterior
• All four ‘pepper pot’ wheels are undamaged
• Every piece of the exterior trim is present and correct
• Icon design that is instantly recognisable
The 205 shape is instantly recognisable from any angle, the slated boot lid and boxy front end make for beautifully simple lines, and the red flashes around the doors and front lip help make the 205 GTI a real looker.
This car is finished in a lovely, brilliant silver so from any angle it looks excellent. To help compliment the silver paint and silver pepper pot style wheels there is a black and red plastic trim that runs all the way around the car and is one of the most recognisable features on the exterior of a GTI.
Nowadays it can be hard to find a great example of a 205 GTI, older French cars can suffer badly with rust ultimately calling an end to many an example, this car is presented with no real visible paint bubbling, there is a small patch just in front of the rear wheel on the passenger’s side, but nothing that should worry a prospective buyer.
Many of you would have grown up reading about these cars and wishing that one day you could have one. With this example being presented in such great condition it is the car to have for long summer drives.
The Mechanics
• Fitted with the 115bhp 1.6 litre engine
• 5-speed manual box
• Incredibly fun car to drive – unlike any modern hot hatch
The 205 was a great car even in its most basic form, so when Peugeot wanted to create a hot hatch the run of the mill 205 was a perfect candidate. Fitted with a peppy little 1.6l producing just over 100hp it was and still is a thrill to drive. To further cement this car as a hot hatch legend, a great 5-speed manual gearbox was fitted so the driver can be at one with their machine.
This example is in great mechanical condition and raring to go on your next big adventure, simply turn the key and you are away. On the day that the photographs were taken she was required to start and maneuvered into position on several occasions, she performed this task easily with no worrying noises coming from the engine or gearbox.
The next owner of this car will have one excellent driver’s car that is like no other modern hot hatch. Along with the Golf GTI, the 205 GTI is one of the revolutionary godfathers within a much-loved genre of cars.
Summary

Come funzionano le offerte massime
Il processo di offerta massima ti permette di fare offerte senza preoccupazioni.
Inserisci la tua offerta massima e il sistema farà offerte automaticamente per assicurarsi che tu sia il miglior offerente - fino all'ammontare da te stabilito come tetto massimo.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic contrasta il fenomeno dello “sniping”, ovvero il fenomeno dei rilanci all'ultimo secondo per vincere l'asta.
Se viene fatta un'offerta nei 3 minuti prima della chiusura dell'asta, la scadenza di questa viene automaticamente estesa di 2 minuti per permettere agli altri offerenti di reagire e, se lo desiderano, di rilanciare.
Incrementi di offerta automatica
- Se la sua offerta massima è uguale o inferiore al prezzo di riserva, la sua offerta massima sarà applicata per intero se lei è il miglior offerente.
- Se siete il miglior offerente e fate un'offerta massima superiore a quella di riserva, la riserva verrà automaticamente inserita come prima offerta.
-
- Una volta raggiunta la riserva, Car & Classic si assicurerà che tu sia il miglior offerente utilizzando solo gli incrementi di offerta indicati di seguito.
- Vi terremo in testa fino alla vostra offerta massima O all'incremento più vicino alla vostra offerta massima, a condizione che la vostra offerta massima sia sufficiente a coprire il valore dell'incremento.
| Ammontare dell'offerta | Incremento |
|---|---|
| Da £0 a £9,999 | £100.00 |
| Da £10,000 a £49,999 | £250.00 |
| Da £50,000 a £99,999 | £500.00 |
| £100,000 + | £1,000.00 |
Superamento immediato dell'offerta
Quando piazzi un'offerta massima e questa viene immediatamente superata, questo significa che un altro offerente ha impostato una soglia di offerta massima superiore alla tua.
Puoi fare nuovamente un'offerta o impostare una soglia più alta di offerta massima e il nostro sistema rilancerà fino alla nuova soglia, cercando di portarti a essere il miglior offerente.
Offerte massime di pari ammontare
Quando ci sono due offerte massime di pari ammontare, quella impostata per prima è quella che viene considerata “migliore offerta”.
Pre-autorizzazione
Potremmo trattenere un piccolo importo di pre-autorizzazione sulla tua carta fino alla fine dell'asta, quando quest'ultimo verrà poi stornato. Se vinci, verrà prelevata una caparra che verrà detratta dal pagamento del prezzo di vendita per il veicolo e non comporta costi aggiuntivi per te.
Cosa sono le Offerte pre-asta?
Offerte pre-asta significa che avete la possibilità di fare offerte prima dell'inizio ufficiale dell'asta.
Verrà comunicato se si è il miglior offerente o meno all'inizio dell'asta.
