Its just a 206
When a girl asks what car do you drive? If you say peugeot, they leave
I prefer a stick |
how do you think i feel...
"what car do you drive?"
" a 206"
"aw okay"
and then when they see it
"WHAT THE FUNK IS THAT?"
But I do have my 3.0l v6 scimitar aswell....
"ooooooooohhhhh"
not that many girls i know have anyidea what it is, but 3.0l v6 does sound impressive haha |
You see valid point here

thats a fuse gone somewhere, mine did it, but by turning the light on, it also turned the cd player off!!
my vag is s**te compared to the pug!! had so many problems! and they all stuff you cant fix yourself!! |
All the fuses are fine, I think it's a bad earth somewhere but can't source it, need an auto electrician really

The white triangle on the hazard warning switch rubs out with little use.
Have to completely stop to engage first gear.

The front window blower with occupents in the car = front window keeps steaming up. Peugeot should have put some blowers on the pillar as only the bottom of the window demists due to its size and angle.

Whats that about your vag? - Lol, but seriously, there's loads.
- The stupid reverse gear thing, never goes in first time.
- Auto headlights, only comes on when you don't need/want it.
- Seatbelt getting caught/I find it a little awkward reaching for the belt as well.
- Rattles and cheap/crappy build quality.
- Can't think of anything else...

1 - most cars with revers down there do it, my 207 does, our old evo was a tw@ for it...
2 - switch them off...

Mhmm... Or you think it's in reverse, release the clutch expecting to move & you're like "wtf?!... Oh it's not actually in reverse, it just looks like it!" Has done it on both the 206's I've driven & my Boyfriend's 106 GTi is terrible for it... it never goes in reverse first time! |
I thought it was the way i put it in reverse, even after 15 years or driving i still cant et it right.
and the soddin Comms2000 unit. I've been through 2 now and my lights STILL come on when i indicate.

Sounds like it needs a bsi config to me. not just the com2000 that sets that bugger off, my old one used to flick the indicator the other way once i'd turned the corner.
but i also hate the half in reverse thing, i've got used to it by doing the roll forward thing, otherwise i can try reverse like 10times and get angry, go to reverse and hear a 'your only half in ;)' *sexual comments, on a weekend* crunch that i love so much

Ah, the joys of Porsche ownership. Best to not let the ladies see it though.
I'm jealous of the Relient.
For those complaining about the gearbox, try using a rear mounted box. The 206 one is a diddle in comparison.
