Рет қаралды 1,393
5 ай бұрынThey say the days of the cheap car are over, but can you buy a classic for under £750? Joe from Classics World managed it, spending just £400 on a high mileage diesel Peugeot 205! But with rust and endless cosmetic issues, did he overpay...?

Also something to note around Car Mechanics: We like to show you how we’ve gone about various aspects of car maintenance and repairs, but we can't promise that anything we show you will work for your particular car, or that you won't harm yourself, someone else, your car or your warranty doing it. Please be safe, be responsible and unless you know what you're doing, do not attempt any potentially dangerous work on cars just because you've seen us make it look so easy. Talk to a qualified mechanic if you are in any doubt.

There is a metal wire between the headlight and the indicator light as well. If you used that and removed the headlight completely (headlight adjuster might need some convincing to release), you would have had much more room to work on removing the indicator. The new gear knob you made might be more reliable than a replacement, since he replacements seem to be of a similar material as the original ones, which disintegrate in time because of heat/cold cycles, fuel residue stuck on your hands after filling up, and/or skin grease. However, the replacement gearknobs seem to be quite available here in the Netherlands and reasonably priced. Might not hurt to have one shipped over there if you are in a pinch. Thanks for giving this 205 the love it deserves and keeping it on the road!

I had a new 205 Junior in 1986 (D reg) - the 954cc petrol version. It was hideously basic, 4-speed and it was dog slow (only about 45bhp I think) but it was economical and 100% reliable in the 3yrs and 55k miles I had it for and a bit more interesting than its Fiesta, Nova or Metro rivals. I did get a rear-wiper for it which came with a new stalk
