Peugeot 206 D turbo

There are lots of 206's around, as for the last couple of years it's been the best-selling privately bought car in the UK. However you still don't see too many D Turbo's, perhaps because it's up at the sharp end of the price range. Mine is now 2 years old and has covered 18,000 miles with 100% reliability. It's fast, frugal and fun; the 2 litre HDI engine is so smooth and eager yet returns 45 mpg round town and 55+ mpg on a long journey at max legal speeds. Handling is just delightful - in spite of its high build it doesn't roll much, grip is unending and steering is accurate and well-weighted. You couldn't really call it ...  Read the complete review

I have a 206 D Turbo and have had it for around 4 months now. I think the overall style for the 206 is excellent, pininfarina have done a class job on a small car when you compare it to other manufactures attempts and its still going strong 6 years after introduction! The 2.0 litre dturbo is a very quick and economical car, with more torque than the GTi 180!! it certainly pulls well up hills which gives it the feel of a much more powerful car. Acceleration also feels quicker than Peugeot state in the brochure, however a superchip will have it hot on the Gti's tail, giving it nearly 200lbs of torque! (and 110bhp) One thing that is worth adding to ...  Read the complete review

Ahh the peugeot 206 is a brilliant car well in my opinion, i bought her about eight months ago and have got no bother out of it yet. Its very light on fuel intake and very economical which helps to pay the yearly road tax, it sum's to £35 a year which is very cheap compared to my last car, it was a 1.2 ltr Renault Clio, yearly road tax for that was £135 so i was glad i changed! The model i own at the minute is a 1.4 HDi S D-Turbo, which is nippy enough, its got a stainless steal diesel cap which is available for all models of the 206 although there around £15-£20 to buy from ur car dealer! You can also add a spoiler onto them which i think really gives them a ...  Read the complete review

I have had my 206 D Turbo 3dr for exactly 2 years now and bought it from new. I haven't regretted a minute of my purchase. I previously owned 2x306's and thought for my need they were too big as I don't have a family and am still a Single guy, so I thought for my next car I was going to go smaller. When I saw my 206 I fell in love nad then then the test drive I was sold. I have doen 23,000 miles with very few problems, there has been a little problem with the key were being it seems to lose it's coding and I have to used the spare, but I don't know all the technical details but once the spare has been used the Master seems to ...  Read the complete review

We hare changed our driving school car from a Ford KA (see the section on KAs for that particular nightmare) and with the improved fuel economy, build quality and the fact that it goes like stink (although the leaners don't obviously), we are really happy with it. Far too refined to be a diesel, it compares very favourably with the Fiat Bravo 1.8 HLX we used as a family car and the Fiat Punto Sporting that I use now. As I said, put your foot and down and it goes. Straightaway. The interior is well laid out and feels quality - you feel like you are in a car where effort has been made, rather than any old plastic just thrown in there. We looked at an ...  Read the complete review
