2006 Peugeot 206 RC (GTi 180) review from Lebanon
"A wonderful driver's car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The clutch vibrates when starting from a standstill, this is very annoying in heavy traffic.
Gear changes are not smooth, I feel the clutch grinding, especially when changing from 4th to 3rd.
General comments?
This car has lots of power and I enjoy driving it a lot.
It's handling is very good and very predictive and graduate.
The ride is fairly comfortable for a sports car, however, noise is a bit high when cruising on a highway.
The rims are exposed, when parking near a sidewalk, they get scratched easily.
