#7: Re: whats the difference from a sport to a sport3? 1.4 16v Author: Barking, Location: sarcasm-in-shedloadsPosted: Tue Apr 12, 2011 12:06 pm ---- 14" Tornado vs 15" Sirocco alloys might explain a slight difference
#8: Re: whats the difference from a sport to a sport3? 1.4 16v Author: Dabamash, Location: The car in frontPosted: Tue Apr 12, 2011 12:07 pm ---- The extra 3 adds wind resistance

#10: Re: whats the difference from a sport to a sport3? 1.4 16v Author: vauxfan, Location: yorkPosted: Tue Apr 12, 2011 1:43 pm ---- so do peugeot actually have a book speed for this car? everything matches on the 2 cars apart from co2, which is higher on the sport 3!!
does any 1 know of another website which book speeds?
#11: Re: whats the difference from a sport to a sport3? 1.4 16v Author: Seabook, Posted: Tue Apr 12, 2011 2:16 pm ---- why do you care about that at all?
#12: Re: whats the difference from a sport to a sport3? 1.4 16v Author: vauxfan, Location: yorkPosted: Tue Apr 12, 2011 2:21 pm ---- because she has a 1.4 8v petrol at the moment and she wants to keep it a 1.4 for tax purposes, so i thought if she gets another at least it can be a little nippier, over a second in the sport, but the sport3 seems to be more or less the same, so i can't see the benifit if its correct.
there must be other websites that have info on 0-60 times?
its all about evolution, you want the next car to be better than the current 1, at least a little quicker yes?
#13: Re: whats the difference from a sport to a sport3? 1.4 16v Author: MrBSI, Location: What's it to you? ? ?Posted: Tue Apr 12, 2011 5:10 pm ---- Why would anyone buy another 206 after already owning one
As for the 1.4 petrol 16 valve lump, best avoided
8 extra valves, a 2nd camshaft & VVT = a whole whopping 15 extra bhp then the old stone age TU3 lump, PSA Peugeot / Citroen really worked hard on that one

Hey, don't knock it Mazda did a standard 1.6 B-6 engine for the MX3 which pumped out a huge 98 bhp, then they did a B-6d 16v DoHC which put out an awe inspiring 108 bhp. I had a 1.5 Civic which had more power than both, standard (by at least 10 bhp)! Now that's a poor increase and also a poor engine IMO (and it wets itself a lot-typical Mazda).

Whether or not the cost of this, for the gains you'll get is justified will be purely your own decision though....

imho and induction kit and a remap are a complete waste of money!
most you will see from that is about 7hp if your very lucky!
the 2001 206 is starting to rust, fall apart and feel slow, it also is basic with the toys!
a 2005/2006 car is newer, has abs, trip computer, electric mirrors, rear discs and colour coded rubstrips, oh and no rust. 15hp more in a little car is like 30bhp in mine, so that should answer the question of why buy another 206.
#19: Re: whats the difference from a sport to a sport3? 1.4 16v Author: Danw_VVT, Location: Herts/LondonPosted: Wed Apr 13, 2011 8:27 am ---- i have the 1.4 ET3 lump with VVT is a fairly quick car tbh but yes i do wish id stayed clear just because my tuning is very limited with this engine
if your keeping it stock then its the perfect choice better mpg the a 8v anyway!
as for the difference between the sport and sport 3. there is none. the0-60 times on parkers are completely accurate anyway. there could be so many factors outside fo the car hat caused the sport3 to be 0.7 slower then the sport. its just not worth worrying about.
you wont notice the 0.7 in real world anyway.

now thats the first educational post for my question, yes it will stay standard!, and yes i noticed the mpg aswell which i forgot to add in my pro's comments. the quicker bit is a plus as i hate the lackless 8v she has at the mo when trying to overtake. esp when a little weight is in the car!
just 1 question though, how do you know the parkers quotes are correct?
the cars are identical in weight, power, dimensions, top speed ect.
and isn't the gap 1.5 secs?
#21: Re: whats the difference from a sport to a sport3? 1.4 16v Author: M60SHW, Location: CarlislePosted: Wed Apr 13, 2011 10:27 am ---- I had 1.4 16v engine sport and it was a little trooper never let me down it's nippy but economical and was still going strong after 94k miles not missing a beat, car had the sports kit and was a good little car carnt ask for much more
