Buy a 205. Why is it more classic than my 306 or am I missing something? http://thesteepletimes.com/a-performing-peugeot/
Want to get rid of some money?

It's older..
It was one of the first and most successful incarnations of a "hot hatch" The other manufacturers ran around like headless chickens for a few years to try to emulate it Given the choice between Niall and the sheep. I would choose the sheep!

The Mk1 Golf and the 205 are probably the top 2 iconic hot hatches. I can't see the 306 getting anywhere near them ever status wise. The 205 also went on to evolve into a world championship winning Group B rally car that knocked the Audi Quattro off its pedestal. That was quite an achievement! A lot of people that grew up watching that will now be loaded, you can't get any interest in a bank so they are ploughing it into 205's instead.

Money in a nice gti will be better than money in the bank anyway.

Whether we're in different territory to the bubble that burst in the early nineties is the thing? My mate Stu is certainly kicking himself now. I was on at him for years not to get rid of his when he bought a Civic Type R. He had a nice Miami Blue K plate, air-con, full leather standard 1.9, oops!

Or have never seen top gear, or any car program that talks even briefly about teh 205 lol. A 205 would still make a tidy little investment, especially as a doer-upper.
