This is my little 205...

pre-lip:


Cut down BMW E30 Pre-Face lift:


Turns out having 3 blown shocks (drivers front and both rear) let the car do things like this:



<--- didn't know we had the blown shocks at this point hence the rear squat and average handbrake turns...

other photos to make you go wow that awesome (well you are in my head):

That rocker cover looks familiar

really... not sure where it came from...

Must just be the style at the time, it kind of reminded me of that I saw every time I opened the bonnet on my BX 16 valve...

It's the same... Its the mi16 motor from a 4x4 405 mi16

That little car looks like it'd be an absolute blast. I'm not much into the hot-hatch scene, but stripped-out interior + uprated engine = craploads of track-day fun.

Didn't you want the 4x4 system? mind you the donor cars' 4x4 system was probably the reason it was a donor in the first place

Anyway, congrats, as you win the coveted 'Longest Gear Stick Award 2011'

Looks like fun.

Not sure I'd want to fold that bonnet prop in the dark with the engine running tho...

noticed its RHD ? are all cars in new zealand right hand drive ?

Yeah they are all right hand drives.

The cam cover is now back on, those engine bay pics are 2 years old now. It's also running an air filter.

A lot of works been done to it. You guys should be able to access this: http://www.aussiefrogs.com/forum/showthread.php?t=85719 if you want

Haha yeah that damm gear stick... i'm going to be looking at stealing the cable selection system from a 406 later also, more cars to hack up for the 205 - whooo!

In that tiny 'ickle car - must be even lighter than the BX!

They must be getting like hen's teeth these days

Nice Yoke
