Hi Winters, Just to show you that I am a little behind where you are with the 205 at the moment, please find the latest image of the car.
After it standing for a few years before I aquired it we flushed the old fuel out of the system (which was more like parafin than petrol), changed the fuel filter and then put some injector cleaner through the system, after which it held a steady tick over. Somethin that it didnt want to do when first started up.

We also drained the coolant and flushed the system through, clearly this hadn't been done for some time as it was pretty mucky.
The bonnet was removed as one of the mounting bolts had siezed and snapped (a common problem with GTi's) and this also helped to give us excellent access to the engine bay.

That will be it for a while now as I need to finish the Williams before doing anything to the 205, fluids change was just to make sure that the car was not going downhill whilst it was being stored. The car is solid but tatty looking as someone had started to sand down the roof and then left it. The plan for the car is to give it a good going over (nothing like the Williams though)and then get it ready for some retro fun along with the Williams.

That's great Phil thanks for the update. The car Looks very solid and nice colour. I'll challenge you to getting them road ready for this time next year ;) here's mine after a nice run out recently.

I think that you will win this challenge as both of your cars are looking very road ready now 👍
The 205 is looking very nice, I do like the GTi in white
