#1: 206 Grand Tourisme #1482 Project *UPDATE PG3 31/05/10* Author: Austin, Location: TelfordPosted: Mon Feb 08, 2010 6:54 am ---- Everyone probably remembers my old 206 1.1 LX in indigo blue, loved the car but really needed abit more power so whilst the site was down i decided to take the plunge and look at buyng a new one.
Always fancied a 206 GTi but wanted something abit more special, when i came across a 206 Grand Tourisme, which is a Limited Edition of 4000 but 600 in RHD, abit of a marmite 206, but i love it.
Took me a while to find the right one as many have been chaved up and wrecked, until i found this great standard example. Was abit more than the list price of other GT's but didn't mind paying the extra to get one that i wanted. Only got 52k on the clock and full service history from new, and best of all it hasn't been messed with.
Here are a few pictures of the car in the advert, haven't had chance to do my own pics yet but will post some up when i do.
Thanks

Looks mint mate and that mileage is really low too! Look after it, although I'm sure you will, your old car was tidy!
Any plans?

#13: Re: 206 Grand Tourisme #1482 Project Author: Austin, Location: TelfordPosted: Tue Feb 09, 2010 5:38 am ---- Thanks for all the comments and replys guys, got a few plans for it but nothing major, want to try and keep it looking close to standard with it being limited edition.
Firstly want to upgrade the discs and pads to mintex all round as they haven't got many miles left in them. Might also get a set of goodridge braided brakelines.
Think it needs to go a little lower but don't want to loose the comfort, so been looking at Eibach 25-35mm spring kits. There more expensive than g-max and spax but from what i've heard there well worth it.

Thanks mate, i didn't think the GT's came with a spoiler standard, but have seen a few with them before so maybe they were a optional extra. What numbers are yours and your mrs? Would be a good idea when the forum is up and running again to get a register or something going to see how many are left now.
