Feeling the same way atm. Mine's just been one thing after another, after another, after another, after another... you get the point.
Sometimes I wonder if I do this
and then look at the car through the eyes of someone extremely concussed, if it will shed some light on whether it's worth persevering with it or breaking/selling!!
(Although I'd probably only go and buy another 206, just a newer one!!)
*Sigh* I can't help it, It's like being a kid and trying to say no skittles!!

I love my 206 ok i would like something new bt thts because ive owned a 206 for 3 years now.
I had me first one for 2 years and not a fing went rng with it. The only bit if money i spent on it was for a cambelt and a new exhaust bt thts wear and tear so cant be helped, ive owned this one a year at the start of feb and the only fing tht has gone wrong was a cable rubbed through onto another and made the car think there was an oil pressure fault when there werent (cost £48 for pug to fix it and tht included pluging it in) so they seem quite reliable to me

i love my 206 costs me each time it goes to the garage £160 ... (seems to be the standard rate) im currenty saving up my next £160 as the strut bearings have ceased... so total £480 in a year and a bit for garage bills ....
i do love to drive it though... its fun so that kinda makes up for it...

Any car can be a crappy car if you don't look after it,and any car can be a very good and reliable car if you take care of it,and do the Maintenance constantly :D,so I disagree with you about the 206 ;),it's a great car

Disagree with this statement im afraid, up until now ive done all necessary maintanence, servicing, and checks and it doesnt make a blind bit of difference. You cant polish a turd!
