Advantages: Economy, style, drive, holds its value

Disadvantages: Paint finish and rear view

The 206 can only be described as the marketing slogan says "The drive of your life".

The 206 1.9D LX I have been driving for over a year now is a wonderful combinaton os style, luxury and economy. The diesel engine (Peugeot offer the best diesel engine) is simply world class. It runs for ever on the 50 litre tank safley getting in excess of 500 miles out of a tank full.

The comfort inside offered by the Air conditioning, quality seat and comfortable driving positon is added to be the decent sound system and although this is only a tape, it gives a good enough sound to get you through the ever increasing traffic jams.

If you need a back seat driver no problem the back seats offer a good degree of comfort to even the tallest memeber with enough space for 2 adults and a child in the back. There is a boot and even though it is not that big it should be adequate for a light shopping vist. The compct stylish body makes parking easy, although I think the back window visibility is poor.

Another poor thing about the metallic silver finish seems to get hair-line scrathes very easily. Although service is not cheap it does not have to be done for every 10,000 miles so it is not bad.

Acceleration, drive, comfort and style combines a supermini know as the Peugeot 206. Dubbed the "Drive of your Life", the Peugeot style team as created a wonderful product in the 206. A car I will only vhange for another 206, hopefully the new coupe!
