yes, swap for your 206

use it for a while [make the most of the road tax and mot] then swap it/px it for something else

a 1.6 Bora is lethargic, even the 100bhp version.

Speedo failure on early 206's is a well known problem that is simple enough to fix & been covered here on the forum plenty of times.

If it does it means the speed sensor & wiring to the BSI is ok.

If it doesnt then it means the BSI isnt seeing the speed sensor signal input.

Door needs to be open / on safety catch with the car driving to get the light to flash.

Then you don't have ABS.

You would need to check wiring loom first
