unless you spend a lot of money or are willing to loose a lot of features and go stand alone then the "180" not 206 is hard to mod lol

About time!
I think they are referring to 180 engine.. the most commonly tuned engine in the 106/saxo (cars which pfc feature extensively over most cars) is the TU5, which is in the 206 too. With that in mind, you wouldn't consider the 206 a hard car to mod. Perhaps they are just saying that to justify the fact that 206s rarely feature the mag?

I've never been able to put a name to my taste in women - 'chav spec' is what I shall call it from now on haha!
Can't wait to see your old car in the next issue, here's hoping they have given you a double page article!

ive got the TU in mine and can see why its well played upon, good BHP-torque from a n/a 1.6CC engine as standard and I have heard with a bit of tweaking can make good gains
there's a german guy on youtube, 0-60 in around 7.5 seconds which is awesome for a n/a 1.6 imo, faster than alot of 2.0ltrs if I am not mistaken

I've looked on his videos and he said he made so the 'stop' light acts as a shift light, and this made his coolant temp guage faulty

suppose thats not a bad idea seeing as though his revs fly past the limiter, i dont understand why his car goes past 7k revs to get to 60mph though, mine hits 60mph before the red
