Hhahaha yeah, beige garnished with beige with a side order of beige, nice... It was designed in the 80s i guess.

Mate that was luxury when that was made! That was like rolling in a Bentley or something!
But I did realise that there were so many shades on beige

Continuing to be amazed at how hard it is to find spare parts for these, and how useless the forum is (205gtidrivers) - signed up a week ago and my account still hasn't been validated.
Made good progress with her so far, all the seals have been cleaned now. Next job is sorting that injector, then we can start pulling everything off for the chassis refresh. Will try and update with pics as i go along, but you know what i'm like lol.
Re: 205 STDT - Restoration - aggyj17 - 01-07-2013
Wat parts are you after? I broke whole cti so have a load of spare parts
RE: 205 STDT - Restoration - ginge191 - 01-07-2013
Holla if you need a hand with anything mate; I've had to source a spare of nearly everything, and, a fair few 306 parts are interchangeable
RE: 205 STDT - Restoration - Poodle - 01-07-2013
The bits i need are parts unique to the stdt (badges and sunroof,sunroof is shared with gti models i think).
If i think of anything that's not so specific i'll certainly give you a shout, cheers guys.
RE: 205 STDT - Restoration - ginge191 - 01-07-2013
you're finding car specific things?! christ.. you've bought a good car.
Saying that, i know a friend breaking a gti; im getting the bumpers, what else do you want, i'll see what he has.
RE: 205 STDT - Restoration - Poodle - 01-07-2013
Hahaha i certainly hope so mate! Literally just need those bits listed above now, i've got pretty much everything else sorted already. If you could ask him about sunroof glass, rails and handles that'd be great, cheers!
I also need to track down an original beige steering wheel and gearknob in decent condition, but guess that'll take a while since they're not exactly desirable lol.
RE: 205 STDT - Restoration - Pugmarshall - 01-07-2013
Usually a few 205's in the scrappy by me and I know a few people into them, I'm always getting offered parts. If you need anything let me know!
Looks tidy, nice to see another being saved

I have a beige steering wheel and gearknob
Aggy you got a top dash plastic? Desperatly need a black one
Re: 205 STDT - Restoration - aggyj17 - 01-07-2013
Yes I think I do ill get a pic
RE: 205 STDT - Restoration - silverzx - 01-07-2013
I know what you mean about parts!
Ginge, if you could get me the dash cowling that covers the cluster I'd appreciate it! As long as its same as STDT one, which I'm 99% sure it is!
RE: 205 STDT - Restoration - Poodle - 01-07-2013
Do you now, Dan?! Fookin amazing, YHPM, again lol.
Sunroof assembly bits, pugmarshall? One that's in at the moment is zip-tied down lol.
Re: 205 STDT - Restoration - THE_Liam - 01-07-2013
How did I miss this? Looks like a cracking motor mate, saving for a 205 as a second car myself
RE: 205 STDT - Restoration - Niall - 01-07-2013
How have i only just seen you own this!! Looks good man!
RE: 205 STDT - Restoration - Dum-Dum - 01-07-2013
Beige is a comfy colour I must add. Slightly jealous. Might have to accidentally pick up the wrong car off you.

Cos it's outside the m25. But ta.
Cheers Liam, i love it. I mean, yeah sure, technically it's the missus' car, but...
Good luck with that Chris, you've never seen Charli angry have you?
RE: 205 STDT - Restoration - Piggy - 03-07-2013

I've seen her annoyed and was surprised that you were still walking the next day so I can imagine her angry. That said although I haven't seen her angry she hasn't seen where I live
RE: 205 STDT - Restoration - Poodle - 03-07-2013
True enough, just me to deal with then. :p

I know what you mean mate, when the missus passes I'm getting "her" an MX5
RE: 205 STDT - Restoration - Poodle - 04-07-2013
Hahaha amazing, you'll never guess what's next on Charli's list...
RE: 205 STDT - Restoration - rd070707 - 07-07-2013
One for sale around my way exactly like this! what does the wee xud7 go like?
RE: 205 STDT - Restoration - Poodle - 08-07-2013
Hard to tell because I don't think this one is 100%, she doesn't seem to boost properly, almost feels like a nad in all honesty.
RE: 205 STDT - Restoration - MissTap_GTI6 - 08-07-2013
This 205 is lovely! It was really nice seeing you and Charlie yesterday
RE: 205 STDT - Restoration - Poodle - 19-08-2013
Big update to come on this, will do it properly whem i've got the time and inclination to sort out the pictures and write the prose. Huge thanks to the guys who turned out to help this weekend, really couldn't have done any of it without you. Still got a fair old way to go, should keep me busy over the next couple of weeks, but crucially should be complete in time.
RE: 205 STDT - Restoration - Curt - 19-08-2013
You're shit with pictures
Sounds good though man, will keep an eye out for an update

RE: 205 STDT - Restoration - Jenkosowls - 19-08-2013
Do your research into the 1.6 hdi motor they do have a bad reputation across all manufactures that use the engine particularly ford and Psa BMW less so. It's more to do with turbo chargers dying and plenty of people can't seem to solve it even doing the maufactures way of drainning the oil doesnt work! Although never had an issue with mine in the 207 I had. Wiring maybe an issue with the can bus system
RE: 205 STDT - Restoration - Poodle - 19-08-2013
Lol Curt, shurrup!
Cheers, I am aware of the issues with the 1.6hdi. I suspect its actually got more to do with the ridiculously long service intervals tbh. We've got a couple here at work which have been serviced every 8-10k - both engines on over 80k - and they've not had an issue. Plus it'll only be happening if something happens to the engine that I can't fix with original parts for a feasible cost, so probably not at all lol.
RE: 205 STDT - Restoration - jammapic - 19-08-2013
Don't forget there's a 1.6hdi doing 230hp on stock internals!!
Very jealous, right bit of kit!
