#1: Should I replace my 206 for another 306? Author: EDP407, Location: Melksham, WiltshirePosted: Sun Jul 25, 2010 5:52 pm ---- Hey guys, unsual post but I am in a dilema.
Not that long ago I had a 1999 306 1.9 DTURBO which was nice but had no service history and had been well abused and repair costs were mounting up into the £3k mark, so I bought one of my dealers loan cars, a 2000 206 1.4 GLX which has a few extras very well looked after and only 75,000 miles.
2 days ago a mate hung off the edge of my 206 (mucking about) and ripped the aerial out of its socket holding on to it, so yesterday I dropped the 206 off at my peugeot dealership and got another loan car. It's an X reg (2000 I think) 306 1.8 Meridian Moonstone blue with 90,000 miles. It is in mint condition 2 owners and full service history, and my god does it fly!! Never thought a 1.8 would be liek that, and the whining kompressor sounding engine sounds amazing. It's £1495 with a 3 month full warranty. Do I go for it or will I regret it with expensive unreliable 306 bills in the future?

Do whatever you want, personally I feel the 206 is a better car than the 306 but it's all down to personal perferrence!

The 306 to me feels better made and drives better but looks mroe outdated :S is there such a thing as a 1.8 206?

Have you actually driven a 306 before? Standard vs. standard there's very little in power outputs compared to a '6 and a 180, the build quality of the 306 is far better, as is the ride quality and handling. It does look a bit dated now, and the 206 has a lot more mod-cons.
Up to you really, if I could I'd take a '6 over any other 206 any day.

My 306 is a 1.9DT and done 147000 miles and i've spent nowhere near that maintaining it.
