You'll be seriously surprised how not much better a 205 is compared to a well setup nova tbh :wink: I had a 205 GTi 1.6 while my SR is off the road having the engine sorted and I can safely say I prefer the nova 8)

buts its french!!! lmfao only kidding just put that cos of the other post about saxos at the mo

any who back to the topic fair play on your choice of car my brother has a 1.6 sorento green gti (without a sunroof) try and find another one of them :P, they are very quick and handle really well. ive got the head off his at the mo doing the head gasket, i have to say its a work of art the head no wonder there quick

got a tip for you when looking for one you can tell how thrashed it has bin by looking at line above the rear window, the paint will be cracked and it is by how far it is cracked you can tell how thrashed its bin.

couple of pics of me brothers one
