The car community is very toxic atm which makes people like Misha very exceptional. I dont see anything that could be dissed when someone simply loves a certain car.
completely agree. just because it's not a 6 digit super car doesnt mean it's not a TON of fun. cheap little builds like this are the root of all car culture, and those rich pricks need to remember that. even guys with multiple supercars like tavarish still love getting into a little hooptie and ripping it on a track. driving a slow car fast is ALWAYS better than driving a fast car slow.
How can you diss a 205? It has always been known as a very good hatchback. Just an LSD bucket seats, and a better steering wheel what this car is missing.
@@horvathr95 No dissing from me. But as the owner of a brand new (and at the time, very rare) fast road car in the 90s, I let a BTCC driver have a go at it on the Silverstone track. The seats had no support (farmers chairs), the brakes were not up to circuit driving and the understeer which was quite noticeable on the road, was horrendous on a big fat circuit like Silverstone. The car? One of the original Subaru Impreza Turbos. So my point is, a good road car may still be a disappointment on a circuit, but Misha won't leave the owner feeling small or his cherished 'whip' to be inadequate. Proper gent :)
Ive driven a 205 GTI and it was a very fun car to drive!. And what most people today does not know, is how it feels to drive a car that weighs less than 1900kg. Even with less than super suspension, the low weight makes up a lot of that.
First off i want to thank Misha for this insane fun lap! It’s hard to grasp what he’s able to do with what hes got and continuing to blow your mind! Second off, the next upgrade deff will be a rear axle with discs😂 i don’t think the drums love me after this lap😂
306 hubs into the 205 GTI beam is all you need. Easy and cheap. I assume you're already running a GTI rear beam? If not, do that too. Consider 406 V6 brakes for another affordable upgrade. Pretty sure they fit under the Speedlines. The other big thing is the diff. Chuck a Quaife into it. Worth every penny. A Gripper would be full race spec, but the difference is not as big as the increased maintenance and pain in the arse of driving on the road. The last thing I would recommend is swapping a tighter ratio steering rack in. In Australia and Japan we got a unique model called the 205 SI that has an excellent rack which makes for a good upgrade from the GTI rack. The XU10J4RS (assuming that is the engine you've swapped in) also has room to grow if you ever want. ITBs and a good tune will get you most of the way to 200. Probably want a good baffled sump as well - the pick-up can become an issue around higher G corners. J'amie le 205 mon ami!
seeing so many people be amazed by such speeds makes me want to drive a car so much! I am 16 though but i basically could drive any car with no problem. for some reason i dont fear fast speeds at all. I will need to wait 2 more years!
the two of you are Bonkers... one for driving it to the edge, the other one for sitting there and smiling. Amazing! Thank you for sharing. Best moment of my day!

This was the best passenger reaction of any prior videos. His facial expressions said it all... Those bursts of laughter were moments of fear, but utter enjoyment at the same time. This guy had the ride of his life! Excellent video!
Love it ! 🥰 .. a 205 GTi 1,9 was the first car i experienced more then 200km/h on the Autobahn 30 years ago as a passenger, my cousin had one .. was a real hot hatch and pretty quick for the 90s
yeah these little shed builds are where it's at. guys up late banging the car together with mates, having a few beers, wondering how it'll run when the sun comes up. that's what it's all about.
Misha, what a gent you are. This is my favourite reaction by an individual, he was scared, suprised and just loved his facial expressions. You made his day & one he'll never forget I'm sure. Will also no doubt treasure the video and show his grandkids. Top Man Misha thanks. Do more of this type of car, showcases his hard work too!
Awesome little sleeper setup there! Always loved the older French GTI’s! and Misha that seemed like a decent smile you had going there looked like good fun😁
I used to own a 106 Rallye, and every time we went cruising in the mountains it felt like I drove it just like Misha drives this 205. Clearly he has more talent than I did, but the full send driving style just feels so effortless in these little french nuggets. Low weight and a revvy engine is a great combo, definitely the most fun car I've ever owned! Props to the owner for making this happen, and I hope you enjoy your 205 for many years to come still
You just send me back about 30 years when i sit my arse in a 205 diesel turbo and almost shit my pants. Never took the 1.9 GTI but i can still remember the 600 Kg flying at 100 Km/h in a 30 corner.......You are the one Misha. Thanks also for the guy who have that widow maker!
The "common" mod that was done with the 205 at the time was putting a MI16 cylinder head, which was kinda plug and play on the 1.9GTI. For the huge power, but heavier on the front (and destroying the balance) was the 2L TCT (turbo with 150hp) which fitted quite nicely, and then turbo swap.
@@adriendebosse6941 Yeah but the XU10J4RS (which he has now?) is better again. Can be charged (sc or turbo) if you want, but it's not an easy thing to do. NA it will get a little over 150kw with the right parts, and still will be under a ton.
@@bernardo_rodri I ran a 1.6 as a rally car that weighed 700kg wet. Strip out the interior, stereo, AC and switch the seats out for lightweight buckets (without the tilting mechanism). These cars are one of the best FWD drivers cars ever made. Just don't crash one without a cage 😅
@@adriendebosse6941 205 tct it was my best expérience and pleasure during 4 years with only 170chx but the turbo change the game I was 22 and one night 2 guys stolen my car and destroy it I was so sad
I thought i recognized him. This golfing multi-millionaire prob has a couple of fast Germans and italians in the garage, and he brought his Pug...LEGEND.
Misha I've watched quite a few of your videos not all of them, but for me this was to date the best I've watched. A blast from the past car that had me grinning from sofa, a great passenger and of course a great drive. Reminds me of the fun I had as a younger man in cars without stability control, traction control, abs, pas etc etc. Fantastic, and if your passenger reads this, you have a great car my friend.
I've been waiting specifically for a 205 lap, soo good. Love them beautiful old cars👍 so raw. I used to have one with an mi16 engine, sounded and went lovely
This lads reactions are the absolute best, I just smiled the entire time watching this lap. Definitely one of the most entertaining laps for sure. Well done to him for building that old school pocket rocket and Misha for really showing him what his efforts could achieve. So much fun!
The owners facial expressions were classic😅 he was soooo on edge at times, and other times he was enjoying seeing his car being driven to the limit. You could see he was really impressed at Misha taking turns at 160km/h, maybe more in shock, but certainly impressed😅 the car performed really well nonetheless, and sounded hella great too 👌🏼 the lil Peugeot that could😅😅
Much love for the 205! It was my third car I have ever driven. But the first with proper driving when I was little. Still think they are the best looking hatchbacks ever made.
This is so much fun! My brother was driving the Peugot XS 1.4. Was faster then the VW Corrado back in the days. The weight/to power from these 205 is great!
Fantastic, don’t get me wrong I like the modern cars but this is just great!! Love the older cars, twin cams, EP3’s etc where the owners have put their heart and soul into the car and more than likely on a limited budget with the work done by themselves.
Very amusing to see how the owner tries to keep his composure (scared sh*t, laughing, surprised, tryna keep conversation) barely managing and Micha in the mean time VERY composed, relaxed driving! I think I would look the same way if Micha drove me round the ring like that! Another great vid.
He looks like a Frisian kid who's having a hell of a lot of fun with his car project, love it. Love that he experienced it being driven like this. Awesome video!
That was awesome and hilarious. Love to see such small and light cars with just a 2.0l engine that makes them fly. Also the car was so small that the gopro facing you guys was a rear cam too, ha ha.
Used to have a 205 with the 2.0 S16 engine, the slightly less power but more torque engine. Did some modifications on that as well and made great power, sound and had a lot of fun with it. Watching this video makes me miss it a bit
I think the car wights with its owner 850kg 😂, thank you for reviewing an old Peugeot❤. Micha your driving skill is incredibly insane I am a big fan of you ❤💪🏻
Misha, I had the opportunity to drive a Peugeot 205 GTI and I can tell you right away that this model you drove is much, much faster than the gti version. This is crazy how that car goes, they are really the best old cars with light weight. Great video I enjoyed every second of it. and ps. so that a man wouldn't be scared, you overtook cars and three times stronger than that little Peugeot 205.😱😱😱
Years ago I bought a 1.6 205 gti for a £100 it’s had some dents down one side from a baseball bat apart from that it was mint and definitely one of the most fun cars I have owned it felt quick and my god you could throw about
It's so much better when you know when to turn slow down and speed up yourself I find myself just looking at the road the whole time studying it in real life for when I come to race there.
Misha, you really should try to make it a series of 80's gti's. It would be fun to see the 205 1,9 GTI and Kadett GSI, and of course Golf GTI, as original as possible.
I had the joy of owning a 205 GTI back in 2002, i''d only been driving for 8 months and boy did it teach lessons. I learned and pushed and knew the limits in time, on country rounds around the East of England it was pure joy. I found the original Ford Puma to be a very decent replacement some years on from that, many of the methods of driving the 205 worked perfectly in the Puma, the sound, the almost enough power, the balance and the perfect setup for a country road or a motorway. Very similar ethic to both in their design and driving experience. I miss both more than any cars i've ever owned in 22 years of driving! Watching and listening to this took me back a little, an awesome video.
I always love these sleepers/underdogs most, small light normal cars beating beasts in the ring is always fun to watch. also the owners reactions are great! Cool ride!
I loved that!! I was laughing the whole lap watching the lads expressions and his T shirt getting more soaked as the lap unfolded! I think you made his year!! And that engine note.... loved that!
Actually this one is not even that crazy. I used to own it's bigger brother with the same engine, but some guys put a homebrew 2.0 16V turbo in a 205 and that was a lot faster than this. I believe it was a combination of the 605 SRTi engine (XU10J2TE) with the 16V head off of a 306 S16 (XU10J4). Not really built for corners though.
This reminds me why I have ALWAYS fun after driving my VW Polo VI 1.0 65hp (my wife uses it daily): light cars gives you much more fun and amplifies the speed feeling, at the same time not pushing any limits, have a great cornering and breaks are never overheated. Additionally it is much more fun when you get the lights pole position not because you have fast car, but because you are better, more forward-looking and smarter driver. It is soooo awarding. You can recognize fast car on a long straight road, but you can recognize fast driver on the corners. And this owner smile all track long: it is priceless. No 6 figures car gives such a smile. Misha is also contagious by the owner happiness. I believe that his opinion was honest.
@@FicaGTI i had a dark gray one. It was a 1.6gti originally but that engine blew up and replaced it with a 1.9 gti block that we rebuilt at mechanic school i was in. At that time i also had a 1985 mazda rx7 13b non turbo but that we sadly couldn't fix, to much rust and neglect.
@@izodope Nice one, mine was 1989 non cat OE 1.9, sold it when prices were low and I needed the money, want to buy it again but prices have skyrocketed...will see wish me luck :)
I love this video. It goes to show that you don't need to have the fastest, most powerful, or most expensive car to go out and have a good time. Just a fun light little hot hatch is enough to put a big smile on your face. Wonderful.
This is one of the best videos. Just reminder that speed is relevant. Even on RUclips, you can feel the danger and sense of speed is the same in a bouncy tin can, as it is in a hypercar. The look at that young guys face brought back fun memories. Let's be honest most of us have experience of driving an old car way faster than it was intended to be driven. That is some of the best fun you can have in a car. Thanks for the video..
That was *fantastic* ! I much prefer watching this more "real world" 80/90's cars with a bit of power vs hypercars I'll never even see in real life. Misha, you make it look so easy. The pedal cam is really great to watch during the lap. All the best from Prague
I've had the 1.9 205 Rallye for over 10 years and it was the best car i've ever had. The engine survived 20 km without cooling water until it blocks. But after that i drove it 2 more years. Oil consuption was pretty high after that incident but everything else was normal.
One of the best one you ever made Misha ! Just pleasure to watch ! Thanks for that. My father had a 1.6l when I was young and this car will always speaks to me ❤
misha installing the speedocam and the car owner's face is priceless. they both enjoy it to the fullest. wonderfull driving in a wonderfull iconic little car!! keep up the good work Misha
now, this is some super-fun clip. engine sound, scared owner, and that RAW feeling of drive... too bad YT dont have clip ratin, this would be one of top rated ones on this channel.

@@Flurry17 yeah ofcorse. I had in mind 1.4 1.6l orginal 205 :D
@@Maltinis I understood you and i think even 1.6 is not slow 😅 And i bet that 1.4 has even less weight and 70hp is not bad at all for that.
owned a 1.4 once. installed a bucket seat. best car i have had.
Years ago I bought a 1.6 205 gti for a £100 it’s had some dents down one side from a baseball bat apart from that it was mint and definitely one of the most fun cars I have owned it felt quick and my god you could throw about
It's so much better when you know when to turn slow down and speed up yourself I find myself just looking at the road the whole time studying it in real life for when I come to race there.
Misha, you really should try to make it a series of 80's gti's. It would be fun to see the 205 1,9 GTI and Kadett GSI, and of course Golf GTI, as original as possible.
Great drive! Makes happy. Respect for driving skills and the nice feedback about the car.
Very motivating on the build of another old Pug.
Thank you!
What a perfect little car, congrats to owner for building such thing, perfecto
I had the joy of owning a 205 GTI back in 2002, i''d only been driving for 8 months and boy did it teach lessons. I learned and pushed and knew the limits in time, on country rounds around the East of England it was pure joy.
I found the original Ford Puma to be a very decent replacement some years on from that, many of the methods of driving the 205 worked perfectly in the Puma, the sound, the almost enough power, the balance and the perfect setup for a country road or a motorway. Very similar ethic to both in their design and driving experience. I miss both more than any cars i've ever owned in 22 years of driving!
Watching and listening to this took me back a little, an awesome video.
The Lion goes from strength to strength 👍😉💪
This video made me smile, made me laugh, and made me wish I lived the Europe so I could have Misha drive a car I owned
ive had a few solid little shed built track cars that i think misha would have enjoyed. i sure did!
I always love these sleepers/underdogs most, small light normal cars beating beasts in the ring is always fun to watch. also the owners reactions are great! Cool ride!
We all forget these lighter weight cars and the fun you can have with sub 200hp fwd
I loved that!! I was laughing the whole lap watching the lads expressions and his T shirt getting more soaked as the lap unfolded! I think you made his year!!
And that engine note.... loved that!
A hair heavier than a beetle and nearly 170hp sounds like great fun. I love it!
I love it. Low weight, good tires, powerfull engine. The best and definetly Most fun combination you could have.
2:33 Never a speedometer climbed so fast in a 205!!
Actually this one is not even that crazy. I used to own it's bigger brother with the same engine, but some guys put a homebrew 2.0 16V turbo in a 205 and that was a lot faster than this. I believe it was a combination of the 605 SRTi engine (XU10J2TE) with the 16V head off of a 306 S16 (XU10J4). Not really built for corners though.
This reminds me why I have ALWAYS fun after driving my VW Polo VI 1.0 65hp (my wife uses it daily): light cars gives you much more fun and amplifies the speed feeling, at the same time not pushing any limits, have a great cornering and breaks are never overheated.
Additionally it is much more fun when you get the lights pole position not because you have fast car, but because you are better, more forward-looking and smarter driver. It is soooo awarding.
You can recognize fast car on a long straight road, but you can recognize fast driver on the corners.
And this owner smile all track long: it is priceless. No 6 figures car gives such a smile. Misha is also contagious by the owner happiness. I believe that his opinion was honest.
Gotta get this back once he has made the changes, so much fun in a 205!!
Car sounds great! So much fun! Love Mischa’s spirit. Passing all those cars so much skill.
the definition of "Full send"
love it. i had a 205 GTI 1.9 128bhp version regret ever selling that one.
they are either 122 hp or 128 for the older non cat version
Yeah, me too..black 1.9
@@FicaGTI i had a dark gray one. It was a 1.6gti originally but that engine blew up and replaced it with a 1.9 gti block that we rebuilt at mechanic school i was in.
At that time i also had a 1985 mazda rx7 13b non turbo but that we sadly couldn't fix, to much rust and neglect.
@@izodope Nice one, mine was 1989 non cat OE 1.9, sold it when prices were low and I needed the money, want to buy it again but prices have skyrocketed...will see wish me luck :)
I love this video. It goes to show that you don't need to have the fastest, most powerful, or most expensive car to go out and have a good time. Just a fun light little hot hatch is enough to put a big smile on your face. Wonderful.
This 205 with bucket seats and the diff would be a BEAST! Awesome little build!
yup toss out the rear seat and some rear disc brakes.
Pure driving, no electronics, around 40 years old , real sound, this is a real car.
I give your knowledge of cars a rating of 105/205.
Love your vids man!
The owner should go in every car Misha drives, his face expressions and giggles were brilliant
The blink 182 gif is perfect!!!
Always had a soft spot for the little 205. Love what the owner has done with this. 👌🏻
Owner looks scared
This is one of the best videos. Just reminder that speed is relevant. Even on RUclips, you can feel the danger and sense of speed is the same in a bouncy tin can, as it is in a hypercar. The look at that young guys face brought back fun memories. Let's be honest most of us have experience of driving an old car way faster than it was intended to be driven. That is some of the best fun you can have in a car. Thanks for the video..
The guy have the face you are expecting of a 205 owner lol.
That was *fantastic* ! I much prefer watching this more "real world" 80/90's cars with a bit of power vs hypercars I'll never even see in real life. Misha, you make it look so easy. The pedal cam is really great to watch during the lap. All the best from Prague
You really enjoyed that... didn't you Misha... great build!
That owners face at 180 is priceless, he wonders if he tightened all the suspension bolts properly...
Misha you absolute madman 😜
Toujours aussi bon Misha !
I've had the 1.9 205 Rallye for over 10 years and it was the best car i've ever had. The engine survived 20 km without cooling water until it blocks. But after that i drove it 2 more years. Oil consuption was pretty high after that incident but everything else was normal.
nao tem legenda misha!!! nos brasileiros olhamos seu canal!!!
One of the few movies I watched without rewinding. perfect driving on the one hand and the owner on the other xD
One of the best one you ever made Misha ! Just pleasure to watch ! Thanks for that. My father had a 1.6l when I was young and this car will always speaks to me ❤
Yo, 205, nice
misha installing the speedocam and the car owner's face is priceless. they both enjoy it to the fullest. wonderfull driving in a wonderfull iconic little car!! keep up the good work Misha
anda muy bien ese 205 es muy rapido
now, this is some super-fun clip. engine sound, scared owner, and that RAW feeling of drive... too bad YT dont have clip ratin, this would be one of top rated ones on this channel.
Good video
11:16 oyoyoyoy😂 I'm sure this lap was so much fun to be there, the video is gold.
