Having bought my 206 in July and joined the forum then, I have seen many posts mentioning problems, niggles and generally "thats just a pug for you" type comments. On the whole I am quite pleased with mine, although shouldn't speak too soon as MOT tomorrow 
Anyway, the 2 things I hate are the "twiddly" wiper/light switches - OK by day but can never find them at night! And the fact that the rain gutters along the roof and down the sides of the windscreen, dump all the crap, little leaves and crud inside the edges of the bonnet. With all the leaves falling at the mo, I'm fishing them out every couple of days.
Whats you main gripes about the car, its design, quality and general querks?

Defo agree on the seatbelt getting caught on the seat adjuster...or maybe its the fact that you have to slam my doors to make sure they properly shut!

Such a positive forum!!! 
In my test drive on Thursday, it was the indicator stalks that got me. I'm sure I'll find something else once I start driving it regularly!

Careful you don't chip your teeth. Eating forks can be dangerous.

I hate how the drivers seat spanks the horn when the seats flipped forward.

Roflmao, your seat is too far forward.
On a related note, the s***ty little "peep" of the horn. Might as well shout out the window for the difference it'll make.
