Normally rotten wires on the horn connector plug.

Remove the horn and manually test if it's working, then if it is test if voltage is getting to the plug.
If no to both then check wiring / fuses

Is this plug coming off the horn unit underneath the front bumper. If so
is it best replacing with a new horn unit.

IF the plug is at fault then its normally the horn wiring on the car that needs repair / replacing.
Peugeot sell a loom repair section for the horn OR go down the scrapyard & get a good one of another 206 then solder & heatshrink it on to your car.

I worked on one once where it was a bad connection in the plug, a good clean with some electrical cleaner and it was all working again.
Best to take a look and go from there, the horn circuit is very simple.
