Peugeot 206 GTi (1999 - 2006) 2.0 3d (AC) (2001/X) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

You like a sporty look. The car does look sporty, even if the performace doesnt quite match.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

They liked it i think. They didnt like the noise the exaust made wen it fell off at 5am.

Would you buy this car again and why?

No. I do like the look of the car, especially the 180 version, but the performance just lets it down. And of course all the problems i had

What are you likely to buy next?

I have just perchased a Clio 182, which is much more fun and way faster.

Type of dealer you bought from?

Independent

Did you buy this car new?

No

What price did you pay?

£5,250

When did you buy the car?

December 2005

Did you get a good deal and why?

Car was probably slightly pricey, but I fell in love with it so i couldnt resist!

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

What was the dealer like?

Quite helpful

What's it like to drive?

Quite fun, although to be honest, considering its a 2.0 GTi, its rather dissapointing. Dont get me wrong, its not slow, just could be a lot faster. Wouldnt keep up with much in the same class. The clio 182 (which i now own) kills it, and is in a different league.

What's it like to park?

Easy enough, quite a small car so nothing to not really.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Loads. The whole time I owned it I had continuous problems. First the exhaust went, which ended up being replaced 3 times in 2 years. I had problems with the ECU, all the electrics, and it often wouldnt start.

What's most practical about your car?

Its comfortable, a nice interior, which was one of the reasons i bought it.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Climate control, the leather seats.
