Great topic. I drive an auto as my daily but every time I drive my S2000 I constantly use the heel-toe technique. It’s so much fun, even during normal city driving. I Like your 205 btw, was so close to pull the trigger on a GTI a few years back.. 🙂
Greetings my friend. So happy you uploaded something with my personal favourite car that appears on your channel. Hope you are all doing well and safe. A big hug from me and my Pug all the way from Chile ❤
Thanks so much! We're all ok at the moment. Greetings to you in Chile, it's amazing to see how far our content is reaching and pleased to see another fan of the 205!! I love this car!
I've got one question, and bear in mind I am a fairly new driver. I've been struggling with downshifting on traffic light stops. I got good at rev-match and am practicing heal-toes. So practically speaking, if I am going 30mph and have to slow down and eventually stop cos on a traffic light stop ahead, what is the best way to downshift? From 4th gear to 3rd, 2nd, 1st and stop OR rather 4th to 3rd and then neutral and brake? I've been doing the latter but not sure if that's correct. Thanks a lot!
When you know you are coming to a stop I'd probably just use whatever gear you are in to slow down a bit then just brake lightly in 3rd or second before going to neutral before you stop.
Feels so good to nail those downshifts! I do it whenever i can!
I even do it in our 'boring' family transport....Certainly more fun in the 205!!
Post more, the videos are great!

Thanks! It's hard to beat the fun in matching a downshift yourself! It must be great fun in an S2000 with all those revs to play with too.

What engine does this have, sounds lovely
Could you add correct subtitles? Thank you.
Always rev match when downshifting regardless of how you're driving!
Always! it's the fun of a manual 'box!
