ive been pretty much into pugs since i got my first miami blue 205 back in 2003, heres a few of them that ive owned in the time since.. 
the first one, miami blue 1.6 gti, r.roaded at jamsport @120bhp, not bad for a 1.6 with an exhaust and filter
the next 205 was a silver phase 2, totally standard.
then came the 309 era. first up was this...
this was dimma m.d terry parkenhursts own car when it was built.
genuine 309 dimma with mi16 engine and complete 405 mi16x4 running gear.
the next 309, this red phase 1 track.road legal toy.
then i had a red 405 diesel as a runabout, full mi16 leather and alloys, ran on chip fat, was bullet proof, comfiest car ive ever owned, and it went sideways well too!

without doubt THE best handling peugeot ive ever driven, put it into a corner, lift off for maximum broadside effort, then plant the power and let all 4 wheels correct, immense!

I remember that Dimma 309 from when I first got into the PSOOC, was a beast. Good to see you have a 180 now.

i bit off more than i could chew, lol.
in a nutshell i bought it knowing the engine was on its way, built another engine up and various headaches started from there on, lack of time funds and enthusiasm at the time made my mind up and i sold it.
if i had the money i'd buy it back tomorrow and do her proud!
