Yeah it all depends how well they are set up, for me 205's are the nimblest car out there like the 106, so much lighter. power to weight ratio is immense especially a turbo one. Although im not a turbo fan at all, anyone can bolt in a turbo, it takes brains and cash to build a 300bhp NA car being a 4 pot engine.
Track cars tend to be more the 205 now and there is a reason for that. Any turbo car will beat a NA car but won't be as sharp in the corners if turbo lag gets in the way.
Can't really easily compare cars anymore, so many get uprated these days, its all about what you like at the end of the day, what cars handling suits you best and which will be the easiest and cheapest to fix if needs be etc, also what holds its value most.
BTW i've seen many a 205 win time trials etc, inc 306 and 106 cars etc. You can't compare a 205 mi16 with the Leon, the 205 might have old suspension etc and the Leon could have loads uprated. When the 205 is set up very well it can't be beaten in the corners with its nimbleness etc, its like a go kart on rails. If you do decide to get a 205 GTI be quick, their value is increasing every year, bad ones are becoming hard to find now so many people are doing them up these days.
