This is what makes me want to get a 205 for the excitement of getting your hands dirty and banter with mates. The hdi is just too damn reliable

At the moment, no. Dissertation is due in that day. It'll be a spotaneous decision whether we head up or not. Would like to to be fair.

Should come, would be a good celebration!
RE: PPC Challenge car - 205 1.9XUD TD25VNT - ginge191 - 16-02-2013
fuel lines and injectors bought this morning - cool story brothers...
Just need clutch and cambelt kit then we're away!
RE: PPC Challenge car - 205 1.9XUD TD25VNT - ginge191 - 24-02-2013
So as many may know, the car took a fairly big dent the other evening as a deer ran out in font and caused some damage.
Got to the scrapyard and found a radiator, fans and one headlight.
So i began by stripping the useless parts

And yes, you can see it's begging for an engine change... so guess what we did
... we continued to fit the rad and headlight

Oh and also " FIX " the dented bonnet

Glad to see your making the most of it! Lucky it hasnt bent any non removable panels. If you thought 306s were bad in a crash, they are like a tank compared to a 205!

Dude i think id of got the hammerite or waxoyl out and gone over all that rust or youll be missing that part of the car before the MOT comes round.

Glad to see that it's all coming back together saw your status on fb thought it was game over at least it's all changeable things and you've got cracking straight away.
RE: PPC Challenge car - 205 1.9XUD TD25VNT - strictly_perv - 25-02-2013
I gave a a thorough check and it's not structural, purely cosmetic. The top slam panel wasn't even bent! Built like tanks these lol
RE: PPC Challenge car - 205 1.9XUD TD25VNT - ginge191 - 25-02-2013
Apart from the bumper mount
It's good, I guess, it good it took a full front hit rather than a more sideways hit; replacing those front quarters are a nightmare
RE: PPC Challenge car - 205 1.9XUD TD25VNT - ginge191 - 27-02-2013
Update in regards to the PPC challenge itself.
I was unsure whether the repairs to the car would have to be counted in the receipt. Message from a PPC admin:
PPC Wrote:As for budget: as long as the repairs are not performance upgrades then don't include it. If you bought a car cheap because it was damaged then the repairs would need to be included.
So the challenge is still on!!!!

RE: PPC Challenge car - 205 1.9XUD TD25VNT - Pugmarshall - 02-03-2013
I dunno, mine took a few beatings!
RE: PPC Challenge car - 205 1.9XUD TD25VNT - ginge191 - 02-03-2013
Update on the ruined vehicle... it's back on the road! new headlights, indicators, rad, fans, bumper and valance... CBA with a grill
old bumper mount was fooooked so needed to make some kind of bodge mount for the bumper..
old and new

![[Image: pAvMcjM.jpg]](http://i.imgur.com/pAvMcjM.jpg)
Then prepped the bumper and valance, max had a spare one which is a bonus, but unfortunately on a 5 door nad it looks quite barry..

![[Image: w2ejmqo.jpg]](http://i.imgur.com/w2ejmqo.jpg)
BUT at least it's back on the road and keeping me going!
RE: PPC Challenge car - 205 1.9XUD TD25VNT - Scott - 02-03-2013
It does look a little barry in all honesty, though as you say, it's back up and running which is the main thing!
RE: PPC Challenge car - 205 1.9XUD TD25VNT - Pugmarshall - 02-03-2013
Drop it and spray the valance red!
RE: PPC Challenge car - 205 1.9XUD TD25VNT - ozonehostile - 02-03-2013
hahaha ive never seen a bumper looking so out of place before
RE: PPC Challenge car - 205 1.9XUD TD25VNT - strictly_perv - 03-03-2013
That is my front valance which I've let him use. It looks rude on a lowered car, want it back on mine but needs re spraying.
Atleast the NADine is back on the road aye!
RE: PPC Challenge car - 205 1.9XUD TD25VNT - ginge191 - 16-03-2013
Small update on this purchased cambelt, water pump and tensioners, should be in the post soon.
Got a bosch ( from max :love: ) and going to get that gov'd and fitted once everything starts arriving.
Also got a little something from the scrapyard; it's a decent size, decent ports so should be all round a snug fit

Do you have something similar?! it's goig to be tight, as the fans are currently blocking most of it; but some slimline fans will sort it
RE: PPC Challenge car - 205 1.9XUD TD25VNT - Jonny81191 - 16-03-2013
Thought this was a cheap project? Surely you don't need fans?

This.
I won't be running fans, never get stuck long enough to warrant it tbh
RE: PPC Challenge car - 205 1.9XUD TD25VNT - ginge191 - 16-03-2013
Sorry?? Running a DT with NO FANS?! Thts crazy.. it is a budget build; a slimline fan for £30 won't push the bank luckily.
I'm not sure how you've never come to a 20 minute queue and not had yours fans kick in, my DT has always done this.. And don't fancy risking over heating and long term damage for the sake of a fan
