Faults:

Nothing major.

By the time I had it, the front passenger seat was unable to hold straight. Had to replace the seat frame.

Replaced A/C gas, central locking mechanism from the passenger side was gone, and I replaced it.

Sunroof deflector was not lowering when closed, as the springs were hardened, and couldn't replace them only, as the sunroof comes as a kit, and it is costly.

The lacquer paint from the roof was starting to peel, but that is because due to the direct sun we encounter during the summer.

I recommend this car for safety, reliability, comfort and economy! You'll find parts from around the corner!

The cabin is great and roomy, although it's a small hatchback!

General Comments:

Turn-in handling is great, especially with the new Toyo T1R tires, economy is great.

This has been the 2nd most unreliable car I've ever owned, almost worse than my LPG 1984 Volvo 740 GLE. I still own the Honda CR-X, and even though that car is 10 years older, and has 200,000 more Km on the chassis, it is much more reliable. I am trying to sell this Peugeot 206 for 2 months, and the worst part is nobody wants to buy it! I am only going to buy Honda's from now on.

Faults:

Everything went wrong, the gearbox had issues, the computer system as well, sensors... I bought the car for $7600 and spent $3500 on repairs in 11 months.

General Comments:

It's a good looking car, but rotten from the inside.

Even though this car isn't new, but everyone who gets a Peugeot 206, especially the automatic transmission ones, suffers big time. Let alone the spare parts being low in quality and high in price.

General Comments:

This car saved my life.

I was hit head on at 100km an hour on a southern road in New Zealand. The other driver slipped on the ice, crossed the center line, and was killed in the accident.

The front of my 206 disintegrated taking all the impact. The engine dropped below the car as it should do. I walked out of the car with only fractures. The crash investigators said they would recommend Peugeot to everyone they met.

This is a seriously safe car.
