Peugeot 106 (91-03) - Review

Review by Parkers on
The best supermini of the early 1990s, the Peugeot 106 was developed from the Citroën AX and shares much with the Saxo. It offered robust construction, excellent ride and refinement for its time, plus superb fuel economy and lots of driver satisfaction. A wide choice of cars at affordable prices means it's near the top of the used supermini league. The revised range from mid-1996 is topped by the exciting 1.6 16v GTi.

Running costs

Much of 106’s appeal is its cheap insurance (group three for 1.0-litre), reasonable fuel economy (about 43mpg on average, across the range) and cheap spares: making it particularly popular with first time drivers.
