I don't really like the shape of the 205s. Plus they are too old

im genuinly scared of falling out and also the radio is far down infront if the gear stick you have to reach to press anything so will probably cause an accident

I absoulutly love them with a passion, would reccomend a minter to anyone and thats the problem, minters are getting alot rarer, the shape of them i think are lovely and in it's time, still possibly now one of the best looking standard hatches!!

Had a 1.4 xs myself (as you can see in my garage) lol

And when i can afford to insure one, will try find a minter of a 1.9!!

Fantastic cars, test drove a MI 16v one a couple of months b4 I got the corsa, the lad only wanted £1.5k for it, I would have bought it if the money matters worked out, just as fast as my corsa aswell.
