My 205 XUD- the time has come to move on
#1
Thumbs Down 
So after this final engine problem which I think is major piston ring damage/ other internal f*ck ups after only being back on the road for a few hours it's probably time to move on with the car and get something different probably a 306 or something.
Main reason is that I need something more reliable/safer to use as a daily. I love this car so much but do not have the time money or space to fix it as my parents are getting fed up with it being sat on the drive some state of repair leaking oil all over the floor.

Here's a little summary of it progress over the 3 years I've owned it

It has been a truly epic and fun car!

So long JOEY!

sad times max, but I have to tell you, you built one hell of a 205! I thoroughly enjoyed reading your thread on the build of this car, shame to part ways with the car on a bad note, maybe you could just wind it back to a standard 1.9 Dturbo? at least it will be stable. sad to see my J plate brother go.

Seriously gutting.

We've put some mega hours into this, absoloutely gutting today after working for hours and then realising chronic sludge at the end Sad

But as said; you built a hell of a 205, it set the standards for JP!

Sad times but if you feel its time to move on then its time to move on.

On that note, if you break it (instead of selling) there's various pieces I'll be interested in.
