It's like driving a totally different car. The power is a bit of a shock for a while, although you get used to it, and then you want more. It corners much flatter, and can do so at much higher speeds. The gearbox was a revelation as well, even if it's still not quite as good as some other cars. Oh and the seats, brilliant seats.
But, it's still a 206. It's uncomfortable on long journeys, noisy at motorway speeds and build quality isn't great (albeit better than the Quicksilver).

Oh and I sold mine for £2800. And it was fine to run, as someone else said, smiles per gallon! I loved it, gotta be honest! Good luck, hope you find a nice one!
