Have owned since 2003. It is a great beautiful French Assembled car. 208,000 kms.
Two new tyres and the other two perhaps 80 % left.

New radiator. Fully rebuilt carburetor (yes a carburetor !)

No electronics on this car .

The 205 GTI is the best first hot hatch ever- some say better than a Golf GTI.

The 309 is a larger version like a Corolla or Sentra.

In excellent condition for its age.

Our other car is a Mazda and looking at having a change by buying an Alfa 10 years newer. Peugeot in 90's certainly more reliable and durable than Alfa Romeo.

Here's hoping I do not regret it but as in my sixties it is time for a change.

Ideal for your daughter maybe. Something fun and good looking.

Please message me.

Price: $1,900
