1999 Peugeot 206 XR review from Australia and New Zealand
"Great car for the price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Knocking sound from the engine bay.
General comments?
I love the way the car handles and steers, and it's very stable for a small car. At first I was disappointed with the way it handled bumps until I took it for a drive on country roads, the faster you go the better the suspension works.
The engine is nice and torquey, but the gearbox is slow.
What I like most is the way it goes around corners, the grip is amazing.
