Spotted the first one on the road the other night, surprised me as I didn't think they were in the showrooms yet.
Blue one, looked very nice as it goes. Maybe not in the same league as the 306 Rallye/Clio *****/Clio Cup but still wouldn't mind one (not for 15 grand though).

I booked a test drive on the website, although its probably lost somewhere in cyberspace and unlikely to filter down to an incompetant Peugeot dealer. Who will in any case be terrified if I drive it in a fashion other than being a total fanny, i.e. testing whether its as prone to LOO on roundabouts as the 306 Rallye.

Where did you book that Turbo, I woudn't mind a blast about in one, not with a view to buying one, just for something to do one Sunday afternoon!

I looked on the website but I could only find a configuration section for the 180!

Cheers

You could just phone up your local dealer, and book the old fashioned way mate!!

Cheers,

I had a 138 or whatever bhp 206 GTI, and it was an absolute sh1tbox. Couldn't wait to get rid of it after only 3 months from new. The 180 is supposed to have cured all the earlier car's faults, but is still a sh1tbox!

Do yourself a favour and buy a Clio Cup or Leon Cupra R, both of which will stomp all over the 206.

I had a 106 GTi, then moved up to a 306 Rallye and when I heard about the 206 GTi-180 I was keen and fancied one next.

However, after reading several reviews I now have a Clio Cup!
