#1: Ape's 206 Author: Ape, Location: Clipping the Apex!Posted: Sun Feb 07, 2010 6:01 pm ---- Here's a few pics of my Old 206. Was a great little motor and enjoyed (almost) every minute of driving it, gave a few more poweful cars a fright on track as well
I had him for 4 years and did quite a bit of work, axles, wheels, brakes, suspension, engine, cosmetic touches here and there, was a great project. Miss it quite a bit sometimes.

#4: Re: Ape's 206 Author: Luke, Location: LeedsPosted: Sun Feb 07, 2010 6:12 pm ---- My favourite example of a well modified 206.
When you put it up for sale I thought hard about buying it but, without sounding hypocritical, the amount of engine tinkering put me off - especially the fiasco with the cams.

I'm sure if he had a problem shortly after buying it he'd be in touch. But I've never heard a thing. ce la vie and all that I guess.
The Cams were a fiasco, but.... I soon stripped the engine back down into bits, rebuilt it with new Cam Belt, Head Gasket, Reworked Head and got it running within 5 hours or so. And it ran like a dream the next day at Castle Combe. Was (and hopefully still is) a fantastic motor.

#9: Re: Ape's 206 Author: Luke, Location: LeedsPosted: Sun Feb 07, 2010 6:40 pm ---- I'm surprised the new owner never joined up here tbh. You did tell them didn't you?

#12: Re: Ape's 206 Author: Ape, Location: Clipping the Apex!Posted: Mon Feb 08, 2010 4:20 am ---- Heh heh, I'd like to buy it back (he say's without seeing the shape its in now). If I could put the Leon's engine into it I would have it back in a heartbeat. Would be a monster then
It was a bit quicker than what it said on the tin It had quite a history, not all of it good mind, but it's all experience eh?!
I wanted to get it faster, but I just didn't have the cash at the time. Would have loved to get a supercharged engine in there but it was just out of reach. If I could have managed it, I would still have it
