Hi guys. So I got the infamous forum bike, that is this mean machine 205 Dturbo from Dannywideboy.

I took a punt at it as I wanted a cheap to run car, ideally a 205 Dturbo because I've had the non-turbo before and they really are just too slow on the straights. So I picked this up for nothing and took it to A recovery yard where I borrowed a low loader from and they repaired the brakes for me and connect up a loose boost pipe. Now back on the road with 2 lovely new cheap ass tyres she's is in fighting spirit... Or at least, was. The upper engine mount has completely gone, sheared off a bolt from the mount to the block and chewed up the cambelt. So it's not in a good way but it is repairable.
