#1: 206 project Author: Cbraid21, Posted: Wed Feb 13, 2013 3:21 pm ---- Hoping you lot are easier on newbs unlike other 206 sites!
So i bought myself a 2001 1.1 moonstone blue 206 and want to mod it up as a project.
Firstly i want to ask for help fining a front and rear sports bumper and grill used/recovered or new that doesnt break the bank? Any decent sites for that kind if thing?
Secondly ive heard of 206/VTR converstions And wanted to know if
It is possible?
Thanks in advance

Engine swaps are expensive.
Welcome.

Got a 206 1.1 lx 01. Light moonstone blue, already sanded primed and spray the side rub strips gloss black rather than the plastic feel it has.
Removed rear badging and b strips, hunting local scrappys for sports bumper and aport grille.
Have some dezents 17" anthracite wheels need a bit work and some 20mm spacers before they can go on.
Cleaning it up basically but eventually i want atleast a 1.6 egine in it, any idea?
Photos soon

Just put what you save towards buying a 1.6 and then start modifying from there. Last edited by macca1411 on Wed Feb 20, 2013 2:09 pm; edited 1 time in total

This would be a really cool project I reckon (owning a 1.1 look myself haha)
Make sure to post a project thread when you get buying parts!

Or just buy a VTS instead?
#13: Re: 206 project Author: Cbraid21, Posted: Mon Feb 18, 2013 3:18 pm ---- Like ive said, i do not want to simply buy s vts stick s induction kit on and walla! im done, i LOVE 206s and the way the look and want the fun of making it my own, howevere i do love the simplicity yet power of a vtr/s.
Would a 2.0 vts work?
Btw im aware this is alot of work but im not worried by that, cheers
#14: Re: 206 project Author: eddie206, Posted: Mon Feb 18, 2013 5:23 pm ---- Are the 2.0vtr and vts faster/more powerful than the respective 138 and180gti's?
