When driving my peugeot 205 GR there's a rattling noise coming from the
front of the car. It's especially loud when giving gas. Any ideas
anyone?

Noises are difficult to diasgnose without extra information. Does it
increase with engine speed or road speed? Does the steering position
have any effect? Aproximate milage might give us a clue too.

No it doesn't increase with engine or road speed and the steering
position
doesn't have any effect. It's an old car - 1990 and has 171000
Kilometers
on the clock.

Thanks

Quite frankly it /must/ do one or the other.

Unless it is a body rattle.
