a quick introduction of myself.

Well here goes.

My name is Gerwin and im from holland

my love for Peugeot started with a 106 xsi (1.6) my little brother had a 1.4 and i just thought that engine had to work to hard... then i found this 309 GTI16 wich was really a bargain the guy i bought it from worked on a oil rig and his girlfriend told him that it was time for a real car and no more toy cars.... still the 309 GTI16 is becoming rare and it's a head turner a lot of younger people ask me sometimes what car it is. the car is just to much fun to drive and still giving the new gens a hard time when they try to outrun you.

i picked up a 205 GTI with a citroen xm engine to drive for fun.

what can i say i'm a peugeot lover

Hello Gerwin and welcome in here!!
No wonder it's giving them hard times to outrun you, cars today weight a lot and are far from what we used to call driving.

haha agreed the weight of new cars is just tremendous but yeah it's all about safety and electronic systems for me i even threw out the electric windows and made them the old fashion way... less electronics less weight but MORE FUN!

welcome

have you some pics of your cars ?

Mine is almost broken on the left side of my 309 GR: it becomes hard to wind the window back up
