Arahan Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Hi, just been persuaded to sign up by Markoos so here I am! My names James and I met afew of you at his meet on Saturday, which was quite impressive considering he's not the sharpest knife in the draw only jokin mate!Not a Starlet driver myself though I do love them! I drive a Peugeot 205 GTi (don't lynch me!!) that started life as a 1.9 GTi but is now a 2.0 turbo running 0.9bar. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Arahan Posted February 8, 2010 Author Share Posted February 8, 2010 @ LukEp - Cheers mate! And yeah I saw that on here, Mark showed me! Sure it was on the 205 GTi Drivers Forum too though, I'm gonna have a quick search and see if it still is!@ Kyran - I dunno, I almost did after selling my white GTi, nearly bought a very cheeky white Glanza but then the 205 came up and for the money couldn't be missed and so far its been the best thing I have ever bought, ever! Ha! So maybe at some point in the future but only if I become abit richer, and it will go alongside the 205! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bluebear Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 I seem to remember speaking to someone about inlet manis... might not have been the one before.. possibly earlier than that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SR17 Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 Welcome Mate205 looks very nice indeed I have a 205 Rallye with a 106 GTI engine, awesome cars. (The only french car I would own :surrender: as im jap at heart)Do you track it at all? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Arahan Posted February 12, 2010 Author Share Posted February 12, 2010 Thanks guys! Yeah I spoke to quite afew of you at the Krispie Kreme meet!@ SR17: Nah ive never tracked it, though the previous had the intentions to do, it was fully stripped out when i bought it and had a rollcage put in but not yet welded in! So whipped it out and sold it, and picked up an interior to make it car like again! Strangely, its a Rallye interior that I picked up bloody good condition too!And i had a white GTi before this that had a Rallye front bumper! Infact, its on one of Markoos' pictures on his build thread! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
