This book, written by author Luca Marconetti and published in 2026 by ASI (Automotoclub Storico Italiano), is a tribute to one of the French automaker's most iconic and company-saving models.
The work highlights how the "205" represented a true watershed for Peugeot: there is a "before", consisting of models that struggled to gain traction due to a troubled corporate situation, and an "after", in which the Lion brand experienced overwhelming success, growth, and innovation.
Peugeot 205 – Le guide ASI traces the car's history from 1983 to 1998, exploring how its countless variants managed to satisfy an incredibly diverse clientele.
The guide reviews the base models (essential, robust, and reliable for the general public), the cabriolet versions designed for leisure, the countless and highly sought-after special editions created in collaboration with designers and brands, all the way up to the iconic GTI and T16 - true "little bombs".
Finally, the author also analyzes the 205 as a socio-cultural phenomenon of the 1980s, a success driven by youthful, colorful, and dynamic advertising campaigns that would set a benchmark for the industry.
