Although old-fashioned in terms of performance, the Peugeot 205 GTi is still a hugely desirable pocket rocket. Pristine examples have sold for more than £10,000, but there are still good cars on the market from £3k.
Go for the cheaper 1.6-litre version if you don’t care too much about straight-line speed, as it’s in many ways the sweeter model. That’s thanks to a more rev-happy engine and shorter gearing than the hotter 1.9.
