vw newbeetle, fiat 500, smart, chevrolet matiz, those are really girly cars. 206 is like a normal car a little bit more in touch with its feminine side, but not flat out girly. Most people i see driving it here in athens greece are dudes.
I disagree with all your reasons.
Hahahaha, I feel like the 206 is one of THE best designs of all cars, not only Peugeots 😂 How taste can be different …
I’d argue that the paint work issues are the manufacturers fault rather than owners - Citroen/Peugeot vehicles of a similar age often seem to suffer with clear coat/lacquer peel and it seems aggravated by pressure washing. My 55 plate red berlingo was a show queen for this.
I think looks-wise they got them pretty good, certainly the best looking car in that design range anyway. I reckon you're on point with most of the rest though but HGF in the TU engine ones is a real turn off which I think could have got an honourable mention.
I own a 206 sw and the paintwork is beautiful, no issues asides from a few scratches, ac works wonders, very comfortable, got mine for 1200 and it was very well looked after, 2006 206 sw does also have electric windows and fog lights, must be driving a crappy not looked after 206
'Gear sticks in weird place' where the hell do u want it to be
My first car was a 206 xsi with the tu5 engine that got handed down to me! It also had both auto wipers and auto headlights and the AC worked 😂 I put all the gti bits on it to make it look a bit better and a new sway bar axle with bilstein b8’s! I loved it for the 2 years I drove it so much so it’s still parked round the back of the house many cars later!
Nearly 2 years ago, I bought a cheap Y reg 206 2.0 HDi GLX. It had some issues that meant it died but my god did that car have charm. I’m tempted to get another. It would need to be either a 2.0 HDi or a GTi for me to do it.
Look forward to when you do a 106 😉
All good points that put me off replacing my 106 with a 206. I would add thick front pillars and short suspension travel. The 203 204 & 205 were known for comfortable suspension, so the 206 suspension was disappointing.
Probably paintwork and rear axle are common problem in uk, i live in italy and my 206 from 2003 and around 190k kilometers (120k miles) has no problem in the rear axle, ac works from 2003 super nice and really cool, the paint is perfect, has no peeling at all. BUT i agree with low spec and, as my point of view, i like the rough feeling of the car, with little to no sound dampening from the outside, it makes kinda enjoyable for a ride, but it's all personal, i agree with it. Nice video!
Mostly good and fair points. Mine must be a needle in a haystack then. Got fully working AC on mine, there's a recharge sticker from 2 years ago, must have just got too hot in the summer for them then. Would also like to add on last point, everything feels quite cheap and the doors sound like a tin can.
I just bought one... Love it! So far so good! I live in Trinidad and tobago
I am buying my third consecutive 206 next month in sha Allah
What’s your general view of Peugeot put together cars ? I have a 2003 Peugeot partner 2000cc but no experience with them.Are they reliable and ok made ?
any chance anyone knows would peugeot 207 seats fit in a 306 ? even if it is possible to swap rails over ?
I bought one, great cars.
I had a 1.4 verve I paid £550 was a decent car for the most part but I found all about the lift off oversteer which ended with the car hitting a verge at about 30mph still came off a lot better than I thought it would
I raced in the 206GTI series with the Track Attack Club. We ran coil-overs on the front with Gaz Golds on the rear and used NS-2R tyres and they weren't too bad. I also raced a 306GTI and should never have sold it. It was a great handling car once it had modified suspension on it with upper and lower chassis braces to the front end. The 138bhp engine is just under-powered though. As a cheap race car, it ticked teh boxes.
