1986 Peugeot 205 GTI 1.6 115 hp
No reserve
French registration document
Chassis number: VF3741C6607588918
• An icon of the 1980s
• In excellent condition.
• Single owner since 2010, in the same family since 1996
Launched in 1984, the Peugeot 205 GTI 1.6 quickly established itself as a benchmark among compact sports cars. Its formula was based on a lightweight chassis, responsive mechanics and a particularly precise suspension, offering an engaging and efficient driving experience. It embodies the spirit of the 1980s GTI, at a time when performance and driving pleasure were expressed with great simplicity. In 1986, the 1.6 was updated with a new 115-horsepower engine, narrowing the power gap with the competition and the GTI 1.9.
This 205 GTI 1.6 115 hp rolled off the production line at the Mulhouse factory in December 1986, as evidenced by its certificate of conformity. On the 19th, it was delivered brand new to Mr Reynouard. It changed hands in 1996, when a member of the current owner’s family took possession of it. A major mechanical and cosmetic overhaul was carried out in 1999. On this occasion, the engine was given special attention: the cylinder head gasket was replaced, the valves were lapped, and the valve stems were reconditioned. Now with 164,000 kilometres on the clock, the car has recently undergone a full service (timing belt, fluid changes) and had its front tyres replaced in April 2025. This is confirmed by its valid MOT certificate. It is also worth noting the presence of a sunroof, a period option.
A legendary little car, the GTI is a must-have for any collector, offering great versatility in terms of power and being more affordable than the 1.9. This version is the smart choice!

With 164,000 kilometres on the odometer today, the car recently underwent a full service (timing belt replacement, fluid changes) and had its front tyres replaced in April 2025. Its passing MOT certificate confirms this. Also worth noting is the presence of a sunroof, a period option.
A legendary little powerhouse, the GTI is a must-have for any collector, highly versatile in terms of power and more affordable than the 1.9. This version is the smart choice!
