Never had the pleasure of driving a 205, but the 1.9 lump was rev happy could easily sit at 8K revs all day long!

Daaaauuuyyym, just saw what happened to your car Kambo (a week late, yes I know). Man that gotta suck. Good thing to see you got her going though. How are the axles? Is she in driving condition? If it's just damage to the body then it's np.
(Damn these english car terms -.-)

Its ok man as and when
As far as i can tell the chassis is fine, both my front wheels are fucked! Tyres popped of the bead, im gonna change wheels and pull her out and get her to a specialist to check my chassis, no point fixing it if its twisted
Every body panel is damaged, does need replacing, but ill be able to spend a full day on it tomorrow so ill have more info, it wont drive, some hydrolics where damaged in the crash im thinking the clutch slave as i have no clutch pedal, but thats a £100 fix so not too bad!

Yeah was gonna ask about the frame. Which year is she from? The engine sounds beautiful, is it a two litre?
I don't really know that much about cars, learned some stuff from the old man but he's only into these old american cars -.-
Btw I'm rocking one of these:
Same year as me
(Mines a bit more rusty ) She's packing a 1.6 DOHC, enough to get me from point A to point B, and her name is Beast (GF's car is an identical named Beauty lol

This one the baby 2litre turbo, I didnt get the 2.6litre twin turbo version as its way to special to use as a track car, but this will have the twin turbo in it by mid next year providing it's stright and true. This one is a late 93.
Correct me if wrong that's a corolla isn't it?

, yeah well, why not Yup it's a corolla alright. Funny thing, my computer was 85% more expensive than my car

So i did some work on the Liner, see how fucked things are.....its a little worse than i thought!
As she sits...
My intercooler is twisted :O So got a nice new shiney one on order
Thats a bit of fence through my headlight globe!
Fence in my bumper bar
Old bumper bar off, its mangled up bad!!
No rail damage, but the bracket for the bumper bar is bent, so gonna get it heated up and knocked back into place
Also noticed the front end is starting to rust, so im gonna be rust treating it
What the fuck is all this? Need a wiring diagram!
New bumper bar on, it went straight into place, which confirms no twisted chassis! She will be fixed!
Speedo cable snapped out my gearbox, this is gonna be expensive, it had the module on it to convert kmh to mph
Thats why no clutch, so getting someone make me a braided line set up, stright from the Master Cylinder to Slave, more direct feel for clutch

Anything with a rotary engine, at that price needs a rebuild which costs about ~£4000 minimum!

That's good news! The rest are merely fleshwounds, you'll get her up and running in no time.
Good thing you found the rust there though. That's a strange place for rust to start -.-
