I'm sure the 208 is a good car, but it looks like the dog's dinner next to the elegance of the 205. Although it's faster on paper, i bet it doesn't have the same feel as the old car.
But you can still handle the 205 while driving through the parking spaces in malls ,and also the 205 can be driven over snow much more easily ! And last but not the least,it is beautiful and sexy !
You are looking through rose coloured glasses. When the 205 GTi was new, motoring journalists thought it was good, but some other cars were better. Now with the passage of time it has become better than it actually was. I can almost heat the 205 GTi saying "The older I get, the better I was..."
it was in its day but, RS turbo took it some years later.! I had both loved both! 205 virtually untunable! rs turbo doubled the factory BHP! with about £2.5 k spent.
Now it did not sell "5.2 million VERSIONS" Now did it!,,,And "Revvy 5 speed GEARBOX" Since when are gear boxes revvy....what the actual fuck are you talking about?
What kind of BS review is this then? All the 395 needs is to turbocharged and add ac. Give it a modern Dash and it's better than this thing you're comparing it with. You could even give it and extra 4 inches in length too with an optional 4WD. I guarantee it would sell better than hot bread. The 205 1.9 was awesome then, and like the 404 Mi16 that turbo engine with a generous amount of boost could see it at 300 HP easily. Tell car manufacturers to ask its customers what it desires instead of sitting in a room and feeding us with bs no one wants
Just wait 20-30tkm till carbon sludge builds on the intake of this DI Turbo 1.6 liter, as on every other petrol turbo DI I've seen, and till 50tkm the timing chain will be stretched and worn out ( as on every Mini Cooper S with Peugeot engine). Crap engines!
Bogdan Bosoi hi according south african motoring journalists. this 1.6 turbo engine is not a peugeot or mini sourced engine. but rather a BMW sourced engine. which speaks alot about bmw reliability.
205 GTi is still the only one for me...
The 205 is still beautiful .
I had a black 1.9 205 fit. It was on an F plate. Was a very fast car in its day.
No mention of the 115bhp 205 GTi 1.6, nor it's shorter gearing over the 1.9. No "V's" and no real comparison. Borderline clickbait bollocks.
205 please. You can keep the other.
Not even close 205 gti is untouchable !
205/208/GTI💕

La 208 trà 30 anni nessuno se la ricorderà più. La 205 è un mito ancora oggi !
Le 205 GTI une performance fabuleux.

205 100%, the 208 is basically a hatchback with a small wing and some badges, looks boring too, 90’s cars are amazing
Wheres the "vs" part?
جميل
the 205 it's the best hot hutch ever made
Maybe, but what's the best Starsky?
i don't know who is starski
are you ever drove 205gti?
this thing is a rocket
It`s hot hatch, not hot hutch.
Poul Hansen so??
it was in its day but, RS turbo took it some years later.! I had both loved both! 205 virtually untunable! rs turbo doubled the factory BHP! with about £2.5 k spent.
The winner is 205 gti 1.9 130 cv.
.... :-) .................. 250 GTi
Who cares the fans compare 205 vs 208 gti bps one is retro gti and the other is modern gti neverthless both are the goods cars in there era
Now it did not sell "5.2 million VERSIONS" Now did it!,,,And "Revvy 5 speed GEARBOX" Since when are gear boxes revvy....what the actual fuck are you talking about?
Top speed 140mph
stop with the stupid background sound effects, irritating noises and irrelevant, invasive music.
Revvy gearbox!
I know - shocking script.

Put a mi16 engine in the 205
