i was in the back of the 180 at the time and he was changing at right time etc but the st kept up tbh, only saying what i saw. 
was in the st on return trip, both felt very similar tbh,
i like both anyway but would still choose the 180 over the two lol |
How many people were in each car when the ST kept up with the 180, you say you were in the back ...so thats at least 3 in the 180.

Your car is as boring as you make it..... There are 1.4 rally cars that will make even the GTi look stupid.... get a 1.4 16valve engine and breath on it and you get a screaming demon of a car.... its all about money, if you want an exciting car you have to part with some of it..... and it will be more than £8

seldom see a 1.4 16v 206 rally car though 
although i have seen quite a few rally 106 1.4 Xsi; pretty fast, surely a lot fast than stock 206gti and probably comparable to stock 180.

I think the ZR 160 would be the most fun out of the 3 cars you've mentioned The a3 will be better built but even the 1.8t's arn't that fast and they don't handle that well, the fiesta st's are gash there slow and they rust.

206s are complete s**t in comparison to everything else that is on offer in the Market, but it's been a perfect motor for me and dare I say it, has been very fun to drive.
However you come onto a 206 forum... Do not expect a positive response, especially as most are biased and can't see the wood for the trees.

Fiesta ST is heavy and slow in comparison to other hot hatches, thirsty too.

Am repping the ST corner!
Peugeot 206 GTi (99-06) 2.0 (180bhp) 3d Weight 1125 kg
MPG
32
Insurance Group
28
0-60 mph
7.5 s
Ford Fiesta ST (05-08) 2.0 ST 3d Weight 1137 kg
MPG
38
Insurance Group
26
0-60 mph
7.9 s
Also has cheaper road tax miles cheaper insurance (I found)and very easy to modify (change the flexi for a miltek and a k&n filter and you looking at 165 bhp roundabouts)  and muchos better the drive than the 180 imo
EDIT. nearly forgot timing chain over belt anyday

my mate had a zr 160 and he used to scare the s**t out of me in it, if thats what you find fun then get that... although the build quality did feel a bit cheap but then i drive a peugeot sooooo kinda used to that, would choose a 180 over a zr160 any day though
