205 Driver

[Icebergstu]

Hi peoples!!

 

Im not a Renault driver but I love them all the same. I have been invited here by a couple of guys from aussiefrogs.com (thanks masse and murcod) and I have been to a couple of your events.

I took my Volvo S40 T4 to the Dyno day in Adelaide a couple of months ago and went on a great spirited run last weekend with a few of the guys.

 

I find you guys to be far more pro-active in your events and also much more liberal in your posts, which is way less stressful.

 

Sometimes on AF you feel as if you are being LYNCHED online!!!

 

So I hope you dont mind a PUG driver hanging out on the forum.

 

Cheers

Welcome Stu.

 

I know where coming from on the Aussie Frogs thing- it's like there's a mob lurking in the shadows waiting for that opportunity?!

 

I think the drive days will be happening, I certainly haven't got anything against going to future ones.

Welcome IcebergStu,

 

I think you'll find that people here love great driving cars, especially hothatches.. no matter what the breed..I think AF caters for a broader range of cars, opinions do differ. I find unnecessary personal attacks that frequent a lot of internet sites are rare here and that's why its such a good forum...

 

Maybe the SA guys will convert you to an RS, cause "resistance is futile"

Hey Stu ...Welcome mate ...dont worry we wont hold it against you for driving a Peugeot.

 

Before buying Renaults again i went through a few Peugeot's .... 205GTI, 405Mi16, 306S16, 306GTI6, 406SV Special .... so i cant complain about you having a Peugeot..... Anyway's you have the best one they ever made !

 

Enjoy your time here .... Your right the guys here are a good bunch

Hi Stu. I'm a 205 driver as well. Welcome to the site!

Hi Stu, welcome to the club, you can certainly drive that thing, and for , what was it? $1500 ? Bargain of the year!

 

If you can go that quick in the pug, imagine in an RSC!

 

One day !

 

Cheers pete

Welcome mate, the 205 is the mother of all French hot hatches so no worries you hanging here, like Moosey said he drives one to

Hey Stu! Welcome!!

I missed the last drive, but will be up for the next one

 

My driving will, however, be a little tentative for a while, since my son rolled his car that same weekend as the last drive

Just a normal reaction for me I think...I'm sure I'll get over it and be back to 'normal' soon enough

Hey Stu

 

was good to meet up in Stirling. As you know i had a 205 GTI as well and loved every minute with her.

In some respects it was better than my Megane - for steering feel no other car i've driven can match the 205.

As a matter of fact i've read that R.S. engineers keep a 205GTI as a reference point when working on new cars.

Pity Peugeot haven't done the same hey...

 

Cheers

I sold a 1987 205GTi to buy the RSC. If I ever get the space I still want to put a 1.9Mi16 motor into a 205. Especially a Mk1 with no power steering.

Fantastic cars. The RSC is the car the 206GTi should have been (tested both, bought the Clio).

welcome stu

 

met you on that last cruise. 205 gti,s rock !

 

especially at the price you got it for.

 

who knows. if your lucky you may find an RSC at a similiar bargain price one day. then you can be an RSC boy too.

 

see you on the next cuise

 

cheers

G'day Guys,

 

pretty new to Ozrenault so thought I'd say hello, particularly after reading the last few posts. 205s are cool with me, my last car was a series 1 GTi & it was a sad day when it had to make way for the 182 cup (which rocks). Anyway they're both top cars in their own right and its cool to see so many keen on their euro hatches around adelaide.

Cheers

Ed
