Pug 205 front hubs???

Think maybe my marbles are being lost but do I recall that some pug 205's have ally front uprights? Or hubs? Or something???

I have the vague recollection of pressing bearings into an ally hub on a pug in the past.

Just thinking of nice light off the shelf uprights that have light cheap calipers as std, and I know the pug calipers are alloy as std.

Nat - I've only ever seen cast iron uprights and hubs on Pug 205/309/306 etc. What about some of the Audi/VW/Seat/Skoda models - don't some of them use ally suspension components?

I have a bit of experience with 205s but I haven't come across any aluminium components in the front suspension.
