Every nut and bolt of this car has been electroplated and the entire car protected to preserve this 205 for many years to come. The work on the car was carried out meticulously, by the owner at the time along with Dimma approved companies, with even input from Dimma themselves in the restoration of the wheels being carried out by Dimma.

It was fully restored in 2009/10 by someone, however then Justin got his hands on it in 2006 and nut and bolt restored it to the perfect standard you see today, fully documented, and one of the best in the UK currently. It is a testament to Justin who spent over 5 years re-building this car and making it his obsession to get this right!
