2001 Peugeot 106 GTi review from UK and Ireland

As I've only had the car a month I can't really comment on this, but in this time the gearbox has developed a bad crunch when engaging 3rd gear when the revs are above 6K.This happens only occasionally though.

Well what can I say... this car is so hyped up you would think it was the best car on the planet! It's good but not THAT good.

The performance after 5,000 revs is amazing! 2nd gear is the start then 3rd it really starts to fly.

Jeremy Clarkson rated this car the second best handling car in the world after the Ferrari F5O a few years back and I can see were he's coming from, but in my opnion the car gets very twichy particularly at the rear on tight B roads if you push it too far.Don't even bother driving hard in the wet.

My old AX GT had far better handling. Maybe a new suspension kit is in order? Koni's I reckon.

Interior isn't as bad as people make out as mine is the later model with Leather and Grey Alcantara. My car's also black which sets the look off perfect.

MPG can be the best as long as you don't go into that magic powerband. I get 90 miles to a tenner on optimax which involved a lot of hard driving.

All in all a cracking car which you will make excuses just so you can drive it.
