    Is anyone forcing you to buy this car?
  • the wing would be even cheaper from a scrap yard, the main point was that if he's willing to say it has some rust(instead of saying it got half the wing missing), what else is he lying about?

    Lying??

    that's a bit melodramatic

    Isn't the 205 considered a modern classic these days? I'd buy a new wing from a scrapper and enjoy the car! :cool:

    Some people...i'll have you know that car is meant to be like that, its a called the sports model. That isn't a hole it's an air vent to allow cool air to flow in to the engine bay to cool the super-powerful V1 engine down. If it wasn't there the engine would over heat.

    Maybe its time to save a little bit more cash OP if that is the standard of car your looking at for you budget, also if your budget is that low I wouldn't be going to a dealer and paying extra for something he will not EVER give you ANY kind of warranty on it lol.
    Everyones opinion is the most important.....no wonder nothing is ever agreed on.

    I've had a red 205 gti in the past, if the wing is as bad as that then I'd say that there its a good chance the paint is holding the car together.
