That's brilliant! I want one now... Maybe after Uni I guess..
Are these expensive? Obviously the condition plays a big part, but for a relatively decent one?

You can get them for £500 on eBay, but you have to buy one with a decent soft top because they are £350+ new. The soft top frame is no longer available, so it will need to be good.
Engine-wise it is cheap to repair/replace, the carpets are expensive because they are different to other 205's, but most other bits can be from other 205's.
The doors and boot are unique, as are the sills [they have strengthened floors which are wider than other 205's]. So panels are quite rare.
The glass rear windows are different on manual roof and electric roof versions.
It is reckoned that there are about 250 CTI's left in the UK [1.6 115bhp or 1.9 105hp] - the 1.9 has more torque, is more economical and more refined, the 1.6 is a bit quicker but older.
Peugeot also made the CJ, with a 1.4-litre engine, but it is rarer and more lethargic. There was a Roland Garros Cabrio too (1.4-litre).
Being made in Italy [by Pininfarina] they don't rust quite as badly as the hatchbacks made in Spain/France/etc.
Basically pay for the best you can afford, there are some good ones out there
