I've got the option to get one new for a really good price.
My clutch will need doing in the future so killing two birds at the same time is of course ideal and it just seems a to good opportunity to pass up on for the price.

I'm very much aware of the reasons for one but wanted a few peoples 2 cents on having one fitted and to be used on what is my daily driver that will see track time in the future.

Pro's and cons really?

Thanks.

What about using whitin stop start traffic alot of the time?
From what I've read it can be a little bit annoying to use.
What about longevity of it itself in comparison to the standard one?

I personally think that you need to question why you want one !
It will be a little more sensitive off/on the clutch( slightly better pick up at low rpm ) .
Longevity depends on the quality of the product ?? . Also the abuse it receives . I couldn't tell you Tbh as I've never fitted one to a peugeot 206 180 . Shocked

If it aint broke dont fix it !

Well I want it for what it says on the tin really, but as I've never used one in any previous cars I've owned my knowledge other than what I've researched is pretty limited and even more so with info on it's day to day running on a 180.
Appreciate the 2 cents though Smile

Makes cruising alot better, only downside is the revs wont hold out as long off throttle

Mind you thats with a knife edged crank and balanced bottom end
