From what I hear the 2.0 HDi's are good for over 200k providing its serviced correctly so i wouldn't worry about having a 100k+ car as long as there is history.

If you mean insurance group.. it depends on a lot of factors.. (Age, postcode, experience, points on licence etc)

Find a 2.0HDi for sale (eBay, Gumtree, Pistonheads, Autotrader) use its reg plate and search some insurance quotes.

My first 206 was a 2.0HDi and it never let me down and the fuel economy was very good..

Insurance group doesn't change. It's the same where ever you live in the country. The final quote depends on all the other factors mentioned.

This site tells you what insurance group each model falls into, so you can see your old model compared to the new.
Parkers is a bit more informative by breaking each model down a bit more but very long winded looking for each model
