    Not bad value for the amount of gadgets.

    Driving

    1 out of 5 1.0

    Steering heavy, drivers seat position most uncomfortable I've ever sat it!, Needs rake adjustment on the steering wheel.

    Performance

    5 out of 5 5.0

    More than enough power, handles like it's on rails.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    1 out of 5 1.0

    Dire, bought from car supermarket at less than 2 years old, needed new front suspension, told that not covered under warranty by local dealer- they are absolutely useless!

    Doesn't look any different to a standard 206, except big alloys and slightly different bumpers. Nothing to write home about.

    Comfort

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Lots of gadgets to play with. Drivers seat is dire!

    Cat1 alarm and immobiliser as standard. Mine's not been nicked yet!

    Service

    1 out of 5 1.0
