Description
The Atelier des 1000 is delighted to offer this beautiful Peugeot 205 Roland Garros Cabriolet for sale. It is seen here in the elegant Sorrento Green Metallic colour, combined with white and green leather and fabric upholstery typical of this iconic series. The 205 Roland Garros was sold between 1989 and 1994 and is the result of the partnership between Peugeot and the famous Parisian tournament. This special edition was aimed at a more chic than sporty clientele, at a time when the car was also a fashion accessory. This special edition was created in the wake of the enthusiasm for Roland Garros in the 1980s, particularly after Yannick Noah's emblematic victory in 1983, which boosted the tournament's popularity in France and gave this charming model great visibility. The convertible was produced in a run of around 6, 400 units and became a symbol of the 1990s - between nonchalance, elegance and driving pleasure with flowing hair. It is instantly recognisable by its Sorrento green paintwork, the special wheel rims, the white soft top and the Roland Garros logos on the wings - all by Pininfarina. The example we are offering you here was first registered on 16 August 1991 and is characterised by an exceptionally high mileage of just 20, 900 km. A rare condition that testifies to a quiet life and careful care. The 1. 4-litre engine with 85 hp works perfectly. It is smooth, quiet and well suited to the model's beach and city life. The 5-speed manual gearbox offers precise and fluid control. The clutch is in excellent condition, with no signs of weakness. The original exhaust has been retained and contributes to the subtle sound of the car. The chassis is sound, the underpinnings show no corrosion and the running gear is in very good general condition. The brakes are balanced and reassuring and perfectly match the performance. Aesthetically, the paintwork has a beautiful lustre and depth. The interior, which is completely original, is remarkably fresh. The white and green leather/ fabric upholstery is immaculate, with no dents or tears, like the rest of the interior. The rims are in excellent condition and fitted with Pirelli tyres, which are also in very good condition. The white soft top is in excellent condition, absolutely tight and the electrical system for opening and closing works without any problems. This Roland Garros Cabriolet is a real collector's item from the 90s with a unique aura, ideal for a youngtimer enthusiast looking for an authentic, preserved model that is ready to drive or display.
