A couple of beauties from the 1990's! 

Saab 900

205 GTi

That 295 looks superb.

295?

Doh! The 9 is next to 0, you know! 

I rest my case. 

Hurry up and fall off yer perch, Ronny

Don,t you dare send me a dose of Covid-19 through the post you bugger.

I had a 205GTi with 68,000 miles on it 15 yeats ago. Sold it for £750. I was quite pleased at the time as it owed me exactly half that.

To be fair, i'm quite pleased with it. Apart from the fact it has one too many pedals of course. Miss the Desmond though.

I always wanted a 205 GTi (1.9, naturally) back in the day .. a friend of mine, who was in the same boat in the 90s, bought one more recently..

.. he didn't keep it long it was the very definition of "unreliable French Engineering"! I suppose the French did earn their reputation for reliability in the 90s, so it's unsurprising that 30 years on the cars haven't magically improved..

The 205 was so pretty that you'd forgive it anything...almost.  Just as long as you didn't have to lift off in the middle of a corner!

Ford Anglia...... I think!

That has all the appeal of a two week cruise round Japan on the Diamond Princess.

There's a lot of lead needed to balance those rears.

There's a lot of lead needed to balance those rears. 

Presumably because they're trying to prise themselves off the rims out of sheer embarrassment.
