    🐒 PEUGEOT 106 RALLYE - THE CRAZY SCREAMING HOT HATCH YOU'VE PROBABLY NEVER HEARD OF!
    The Peugeot 106 is a supermini produced by French automaker Peugeot between 1991 and 2003. Launched in September 1991, it was Peugeot's entry level offering throughout its production life, and was initially sold only as a three door hatchback, with a five door hatchback joining the range in the beginning of 1992. Production ended in July 2003.
    For the first year of production, the 1.0 and 1.1 petrol engines came with a carburettor, but were replaced by fuel injected engines from the end of 1992, as a result of EEC emissions regulations.
    Peugeot 106 (Phase I)
    The "10" line of Peugeot superminis had commenced in 1972 with the launch of the 104, one of the first modern European superminis. The 104 was effectively replaced by the Peugeot 205 in 1983, but remained in production for some markets until 1988. There was no "105".
    The 106 was introduced as a three door hatchback in continental Europe in September 1991,[1] and two months later in the United Kingdom. The initial engine range had 1.0, 1.1 and 1.4 petrol engines, as well as a 1.5 diesel.
    The early 1.0 and 1.1s were carburetted, but were replaced with fuel injection after a year due to EC emissions requirements.[2]
    Phase II (1996-2003)
    Peugeot 106 (Phase II)
    2001 Peugeot 106 Rallye, 1.6L 16v 120hp (Greece)
    It was updated in July 1996, with changes including the introduction of side impact bars and availability of driver and passenger airbags for the first time, with the new 1.6 GTI joining the range as the spiritual successor to the hugely popular and highly regarded 205 GTI, which had been discontinued in 1994.
    In January 1996, the Peugeot 106 also formed the basis for the near identical looks and size Citroën Saxo.
    The 106's successor, the Peugeot 107, along with rebadged versions, Citroën C1 and Toyota Aygo, was launched two years later in June 2005, as a joint venture with Toyota.
    High performance variants
    106 Rallye Phase 1
    Marketed as having "fewer frills, more thrills", the Rallye version had trademark steel wheels painted white. Power steering, central locking, and electric windows were omitted to keep the weight down to 825 kilograms.
    There were pre and post facelift versions of the 106 Rallye known to enthusiasts as S1 and S2 models, with the latter having a 103bhp 1.6 litre (TU5J2) engine in place of the original high revving Rallye specific 1.3 100bhp (TU2J2) engine fitted to pre facelift cars.
    Contrary to some sources, the S1 models did not share the same engine with the 205 Rallye and AX Sport, which used a carburettor TU24 engine. The dimensions of the aluminium S1 block resemble those of the 1.4 iron block with slightly lowered capacity to comply with the rules of the lower French rally classes at the time.(Under 1.300cc) The S1 (TU2J2)and S2 (TU5J2) were fuel injected, employing Magneti Marelli multi point fuel injection systems [3]
    The S1 Rallye were designed as a homologation special to compete in the 1300cc rally class. It featured a four cylinder, 8 valve, high compression engine with an aggressive cam profile designed to come ‘on song’ between 5400 and the 7200rpm redline.
    This engine coupled to a short ratio five speed gearbox made the 1.3 more of a sprinter than a cruiser. 70mph on the motorway was a noisy 4,000rpm in fifth gear, but given enough tarmac, the little 1.3 would redline in top gear at 115mph.
    The 106 was competitive in racing, but also made a practical small family car.[4] All cars had steel wheels, and Rallye decals and seat coverings featuring a one or three colour flash, which again varied between early and late cars. With facelift came new top model named Peugeot 106 GTI with 1.6 litre 16 valves engine that produce 120hp.[5] It came with new exterior body kit and new wheels. On some markets in Europe, it was badged S16 or Rallye.
    Electric version
    An electric Peugeot 106
    In 1995, Peugeot launched an electric powered version of the 106, called the 106 Electrique.

Crashed my red one on a roundabout and wrote it off, the black one was about 120bhp and i managed to never crash it. Wonderful car and I really hope to have another one one day. Listening to that engine scream again nearly brought a tear to my eye I'm telling you. What a motor.

I got it in Sept 2001, so it was on the new plates (YR51 POV). A crackin' motor I regret selling. Never modded it, just ragged it and cleaned it.

If anything the XSI felt like it had more bottom end and the power was more linear too. I also drove a mates S2 Rallye and tbh it didn't impress me.

    That sounds brings back some happy memories! Used to have a red series 1 which I wrote off the 2nd day I had it. Young and stupid! Got another red series 1 then had a black left hand drive series 2 that had a 16v in. Although it was faster it just didn't give me the enjoyment that the series 1 did. Amazing little car! When I'm driving along a country road I always wish I was back in the Rallye!

    Most fun I ever had in a car was in my Mk1 GTI. Above my CRX, Corvette and current 300hp WRX. Yes it’s all about weight and chuckability, and communication with the machine, especially on UK roads. I recently went back over the pond and the driving experience in London was horrendous. All the new speed restrictions and cameras and larger vehicles using less lanes.. yep those days are definitely over.
