Give us an idea what year this 206 is, helps us with advice.
newer 206's are pretty well speced up even the 1.1's

The best thing to do is buy secondhand parts from higher spec 206's and fit them to your car.
Little items such as the SP fuel cap, door handles, sports pedals et can all be bought for around 15 quid each.
Wheels will transform the look of the car but don't be tempted to go too big or your 206 will sit high like a 4x4.
Rear lights are easy to change and give it a fresher look and headlights will do the same.
Basically anything from a GTI is a winner and a lot of people sell these bits on here.
