'66 first national smog controls, '72 began reducing lead in gasoline, which necessitated lowering compression, '75 catalytic converters. The muscle car era is generally considered to have ended with the '71 model year, because, after that, across the board, the same engines produced less horsepower. I once read that insurance premiums for some cars were as high as a car payment. Most performance cars lingered on through '74, but they aren't nearly as fast or powerful as earlier versions ('74 Trans AM excepted). The Arab Oil Embargo was in '73 and CAFE standards began in '75, thus officially ushering in the malaise era.

For me having driven a lot of the above, the hottest hatches were around the mid 2000s, the concept was the same but suspension technology was better and other enhancements like variable valve timing made the whole package more effective. I track a 182 Trophy, it weighs about the same as hatches from the 90s, makes a bit more power and has much more sophisticated suspension. For me, it's the sweet spot. Everybody is different though. That's what makes cars fun, and hot hatches are some of the most fun cars ever conceived.

As the owner of a 1991 Peugeot 405 with a XU5 engine (XU52C to be exact), a popular swap option for non-GTI 205s, you were really really accurate in describing what it's like to drive these: It does turn you into that man child that accelerates hard, lets it go down in speed a bit, ACCELERATES HARD AGAIN... ALL THE TIME! The engine really doesn't give you the feel for how high in the rev range it is and it does make you forget to change gears and the accelerator pedal really doesn't have any travel at all! I loved how spot on you were and thank you for doing these cars some justice

This is one of the best reviews I've seen in general! And besides the hyperbole, yes, that is a perfect description of driving a 205, especially the shifter part. Drove a friend's 205 Generation that he turned into a GTI replica, such an experience!

I own a 1990 Peugeot 205 GTI and the driving position is not like that haha. The cars are amazing. I’m 21 and owned mine for 2 years and it’s great. It’s weird watching an American talk about a car that has not been in America. The bit about the cars been stolen a lot isn’t true. The Cossie was the car that got the insurance premiums through the roof as it could practically out run police. It got to the point when people bought the cossie new they couldn’t insure them as it was more then the cars worth. The 205 GTi didn’t finish in 1992 either. The last one was 1994. The death of the hot hatches was when all the car companies began to mature and start building family and economical cars. That’s what killed the hot hatch game. They’ve been trying to revive it ever since. Apart from that these cars are great. Good acceleration for the age. Still get peoples attention and handle like go karts.

I dont know if the typo on title of the video is just to annoy people but I love it.

Mr. Regular and the Roman, I'd like you to know that you've made my 10 hour shifts cooking at Perkins a breeze, just slap on my headphones and hit the RCR complete playlist. Everyone always asks what I'm listening to, and it's always a pleasure to enlighten my audiences with the savory notes of BROWN BROWN BROWN BROWN bRoWN

Brilliant way to use the "GTA"-style opening to bring across the point. And it was really well done! :D Thank you for featuring one of the truly great euro-cars of the past. It was awesome that you drove the genesis of 205 GTi with the 1.6l engine rather than the 1.9l.

the GTI 1.9 litre version is the pick

Best intro in a car review, I've ever seen! Awesome.

That intro was the greatest thing I have ever seen in my life

That GTA cold open is absolute gold.

I haven't even watched a minute of this episode... But boy, This is cool!

I’m from the UK. And you summed up my formative ‘Car Years’ with aplomb! The gti was a halo car that was always just beyond reach precisely because of those insurance premiums. And you’re so right about leaving them alone. Loving the ‘educated’ US perspective by the way! And it’s fascinating learning about American cars. Thank you for your channel 👌plus you’re hilarious

It was like a Ford Sierra Cosworth that you could actually imagine owning with a few years' no-claims bonus. Which you'd lose immediately because it would be stolen!

Best adr ever!!! Couldn't tell it was not recorded live

Grand Theft Regular Auto.

@8:08 - 8:17 Thank you for that... I really needed to hear it. a dude going through a lot rn 😟

Great video. Here in Spain, and I suppose the rest of Europe ,there was also a 1.9l with 130hp. Most manufacturers did that. They had the 8valve and 16valve models.... Golf, Kadett and so on.

My first ever car was a 1986 Chevrolet Sprint Turbo in red. It's been well over 15 years since I owned it; there hasn't been a day I haven't missed it. Car lived it's life on 3 wheels whether you were trying to or not.

This open was INCREDIBLE!!!!

Superb. One of my schoolmates had a brand new Pug 205 GTi bought for him when he turned 17 back in 86. We were all really jel lol.

I truly love this car, my father had a 505 sw at from 92 in 95, and had to leave the car at the mechanic, they gave us a replacement car, a 205 gti that entered because of a seized engine and was declared a complete loss, the secure company brought it back to life and had it as a replacement. Drove it on rain, in a dirt road outside Santiago and into a canyon road. I was ,16 and Loved the car, it was fun and grabed on corners like nothing else. When I ended up having enough money to buy my first car ended up with a 106 that I still have because of that 205. I LOVE small Peugeot, theres nothing that drives like them

My dad went out for some milk and never came back. As a result, I grew up with vitamin c deficiency. Thanks a lot dad.

Milk is for vitamin D. Fruits and veggies give you your C.

The foley in the opening bit was something else. IDK what, but definitely something else.

Exactly this model was my first car. You have no idea how much fun this car is when you‘re living in the mid 80s and you‘re just 18 years old. It‘s still a mystery I didn‘t kill myself in this...

Just an echo of the rest of the Internet: That intro was fantastic!

the missed opportunity to revive the dead "WOT?!" meme...

Brings back memories, I owned a 1986 205 1.6 GTi, same colour, same trim.

I saw a 50's Oval Window Ragtop Beetle and a Gen 4 Celica Liftback. I'm excited.

YES I had one of those!!!! and yes the fusebox was also hanging like that :D
