Default 205 GTI Mi16 160bhp

1991 H reg White 205 Mi16, 148k miles. I'm only the 3rd owner of this car (owned since October 04), with the previous owner owning it for 11 years.

Engine
------
1.9 16v 160 bhp Mi16 engine using QEP reangling manifold plate (therefore not tilted) and 16v Ecu & loom.
Basic bottom end rebuild 500 miles ago. Parts changed:

Big end bearings
Water pump
Cambelt
Oil
Oil Filter
Ignition leads
Spark plugs

Engine was run in for 100 miles without exceeding 3.5k revs.

BE3 Mi16 gearbox

Suspension/brakes
-----------------
Koni shocks with Eibach springs, lowered ~30mm
OMP Front strut brace
ATE Powerdiscs with Mintex 1144 pads on front, standard 1.6 drums on rear.
Refurbished Rear Beam - essential for a 205 gti.

Other
-----
12 Months MOT
1 Month Tax
Electric windows
Original Factory fitted remote central locking with keyfob - quite rare!
Sunroof
Refurbished White speedlines
Toyo Proxy T1 R's all round
New front driving lights
Half leather interior

During installation, evidence suggested that some head work had been carried out on this before, but no information/receipts are available. The car pulls VERY stongly and with the mi16 gearbox it accelerates very quickly, and is a lot of fun.

Selling due to new car on the way.

Price: £2000

I'm located in Swindon, Wiltshire, SN25.

Cheers

With the all important bottom end and rear beam rebuilt and 177 bhp per ton for £2k nice

That's more than an S3, Civic Type-R and basically the same as a MINI Cooper S Works

I can't justify having 4 cars, so would really like this to go to a good home. Superb car people, if you've not experience mi16 fun, you're missing out

This is ready to go, 12 months MOT and all the main work carried out, bottom end rebuild, rear beam, uprated brakes etc.

Mmmmmmm -Great road car but perfect track car, and lots of fun could be had with this on track days for very little outlay.

No doubt this would show up a lot more expensive and exotic cars on the track, driven well of course

For 2k there's not much better for pounds per smile I'd say
