2001 Peugeot 206 XR review from Australia and New Zealand
"Great performance at a good price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have not encountered anything that could be seen as a fault in the car.
General comments?
The 1.6 litre engine with the manual has plenty of performance. The Peugeot dealer is left scratching his head to the fact that my car has the better performance over his 206 CC.
Handling is great, especially on the long windy roads and hills.
Road noise can be a bit excessive at times, even with standard 14 inch tyres.
