This project looks great and bet it's lots of fun. Quite a lot of work done in a fairly short amount of free time. Wishing mine was more like your one as I'm reading about it haha. Looking forward to see future updates.

little update from 28th may
I decided to come home from my mates over in north wales in my 206, it was my first chance to drive it since having the mods above carried out and it put some much needed miles onto it. I left my fiesta RS Turbo over there with him and collected the following weekend.
i can report back that the new brakes are a huge improvement over standard and that's just with normal road pads in there.
Also the vmaxx coilovers i can't speak highly enough of, ride quality is still spot on and it feels so much more tight now and this is still at standard ride height. Uprated engine mounts are certainly doing what they are meant to as there is now no knocking from anywhere in the bay and the steering wheel has made a positive feel on the driving experience.
all in all a massive step forward been made and happy with the car.
i decided to give the car a quick wash when i got home and put here away in the garage, im going to replace the lcd display later today also (this was done)

Nice to hear, especially about the brake upgrade. Seen alot of posts and tutorials on how to do it. Can increase the disc diameter by quite alot. The standard small breaks on my 206 don't feel as good even with new discs and pads as the polo I was borrowing beforehand. I think definitely a route to go down.
