306 GTi-6 are quite common transplants for a saxo.

Or if you wana speand some money - have a look on gsmotorsport (http://www.gsmotorsport.com) for some good brakes (think theres a special on just now for members)

I'm not sure mate,

I guess the theory goes - if the 205 is on 14's it should be fine, as I think the offset etc is the same or similar.

But they might not fit if the GTi's on 15's as standard.

Possibly ask a 205 forum? or pug gti's (pgac)

306 gti-6 ones go on with slight modifications if you want bigger than your std brakes then you'll have to go up to 15's atleast or the dics wont fit

you can put xsara vts brakes on aswell which is what i'm doing they take abit of modifying to fit aswell but they will on on ok

if you dont fancy all that though mate just uprate your discs n pads

206gti brakes will go under 14's. 266mm discs.

The 205 calipers must be mighty old by now

[Tombo]

do they really mate, do you know if they will go straight on

sounds like a good plan to me
