Description
Unique opportunity to purchase an extremely rare version of the highly regarded Peugeot 205 CTI 1. 6
Following the enormous success of the Peugeot 205 GTI at launch, Peugeot approached Italian styling house Pininfarina and asked them to design a soft top version of this iconic car.
The result was the beautifully proportioned Peugeot 205 CTI convertible.
On offer is perhaps the best remaining example of this hot hatch, being both convertible, and having the ultra-rare and desirable 5 speed manual transmission.
This example is the only RHD CTI manual 1. 6 offered at the present time, in the UK and Europe.
It remains in outstanding, standard factory condition throughout, having coveted a low mileage of just 89000 warranted miles with a low number of fastidious owners.
There is an extensive history file with a car consisting of many invoices for thousands of pounds of maintenance over the five years. Every MOT certificate is also present. Notably, an extensive overhaul of the engine has been carried out, less than 3000 miles ado. As such the little 8 valve naturally aspirated engine remains in fine fettle, delivering a smooth and responsive driver focused experience, coupled with the 5-speed manual gearbox.
The bright red bodywork remains as new. There are no marks, scuffs, corrosion issues to be found anywhere. Simply incredible!
Inner and outer wheel arches remain as new. Detailed engine bay.
The interior likewise remains in outstanding condition. There is no wear to the seating, the red carpets are like new and folding soft top and tonneau cover similarly like new.
This car is as close to a new 205 CTI manual, as you will find. It excels in every area.
Designed and manufactured before the restraints of modern engineering, this beautiful little Peugeot convertible 205 is free from ABS, power steering, electric windows, airbags and multiple computer software. It offers a raw and exciting driving experience rarely found today. Weighing only 900kg it delivers the most responsive handling and braking imaginable.
It will be MOT, ULEZ and tax free with 18 months. It offers significant investment potential for its lucky new owner. Stored in my heated garage, Colchester, Essex.
* Brand New MOT.
