- Recent restoration
- Highly sought-after version of the legendary 205
- Engine full of character
- No reserve

The brand from Sochaux became a big hit by releasing the 205 and its sports versions experienced great success, just like the GTI with its injection system. The 205 Rallye is considered to be the version "for purists", meeting their expectations with its 1,300cc engine and its two double-barrel Weber carburettors. Deprived of comfort equipment, the Rallye was lighter than the GTI and its 103 hp were enough to carry the 780 kg. The Rallye displays incredible agility, coupled with a very pleasant and characteristic engine.
Delivered new on the 23rd June 1988, this particular 205 benefited from a major restoration in 2022. Mechanically, carburettors were serviced, the crankshaft was replaced as well as connecting rods and bearings. The interior is in beautiful condition, thanks to the new upholstery of the seats and new red carpets which give the car a more sporty feel. The bodywork was painted and complemented with stickers specific to the Rallye livery.
The 205 is a true French icon and embodies pure sportiness in its rally version. This freshly restored example will offer you big thrills at the wheel, similar to drivers in the 1980s and 1990s.
