I voted 180 mainly because i did decide to buy the 180 over the 140 lol. All the little differences added together made the car much more appealing to me, and i don't regret it at all.

What He Said

drove both when i upgraded from my 1.4 and the 180 seemed like a far superior car so i paid the extra and bought the 180. now that there is virtually no price difference between the 140 and 180 i would go for the 180 for definate

Why not Wink

Would also want curtain airbags.

Anyway there is no chance of me buying myself another 206 when I need a replacement car, there just nasty / noisy / uncomfortable / heavy to drive & far to old fashioned these days.

Fair enough, I prefer without as it means it runs the cable throttle not the electronic one.

I've driven plenty of cars with electronic throttles over the years, they don't really bother me these days.

When you drive something newer then get back in a 206 it just opens your eyes to how out of date the 206 really is.

180 it has everything you need to make a nice looking 206! if you buy the 137/138 you will be on the hunt for some 180 alloys/ interior, speedo surround, just on motorway the 180 revs sit quite high, cant remember what my 137 used to sit at 70 but i dont think it was nowhere near as high

Maby you wont but the majority do.

the electronic throttle was fine in mine, didnt delay the response, what i drive now has a cable and takes about 10 seconds before it moves! damn turbo lag Razz
