2003 Peugeot 206 SW XSi review from UK and Ireland
"Solid and roomy "mini people carrier""
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Stitching came apart on driver's seat. This was replaced under warranty.
I noticed a slight panel shape mismatch between the front offside wing and offside door. After some deliberation Peugeot made it good under warranty.
On occasion the single disk CD player wouldn't change tracks when I pressed the steering column control. Had to turn off the engine then restart to fix this!
When the CD player started making a "whirring" noise I took it back to Peugeot and they replaced it without question.
General comments?
Driving-wise the car handles beautifully. The brakes are incredible (thanks to the electronic brake force distribution system) and the seats keep a firm grip on you.
As the car was an SW model, the boot space is good for loads of shopping and when required, my bicycle!
If I had one criticism it would be the clunky gearbox.
