Hi guys. I have bought a 1400cc Peugeout 205 open for my 15 year old nephew to learn to drive and compete in autotests then one day hopefully sprints.

We have done four rounds already and we are having a hoot in it, not bad for £181.49p on ebay!

It is actually far better than the price reflects, and due to it being garaged all its life is rot free and ripe for future competition.

BUT the understeer and body roll is comical! I assume it does have a front ARB (!) ( never looked and it is away stored in a garage at the moment ) Is it a simple case of fitting a thicker ie: Gti front ARB and possibly Gti suspension?? Is it compatible?

Just noticed the other thread about the 205 Roland Garos. I think a lot of that applies to our car.
