Yes, brought one.

2.0 HDi Turbo 2001 genuine 53K, FSH. FireDance Orange.

From a dealer 3 Month Warranty.

3 month MOT, 2 Months Tax
New Brake pipe that was in the MOT advisory.

New battery as he said it has been standing around a little bit and he knows that I need it reliable for the winter.

£1650

Probably a little on the high side BUT he did want £1795.

So I 'Think' Confused I did OK.


SO.. The plan.. Open to suggestions..

Need a good service manual. Are the CD ones off eBay OK??

I have done plenty of spannering so don't need a Haynes comic manual. Just something that will show me the what and where with figures Wink

Going to change the CAM belt ASAP.
I do not now the history of that, it should have been done but for the money I would rather not have ANY doubts.

Do and oil and filter. Just because.

Anything else you can suggest??

Then it will down to modding it. Smile

Once I have driven it a bit to make sure it's not a Lemon...

OH yeah!! Half or Full leather interior.. I don't know if the FULL leather makes ya a**e sweat!! I do a long drive sometimes...

Thanks for welcome...

Pics.. Seriously Smile It's aBog standard 206.. Wink

Yeah!! Not modifying until after 3 months.. need to get a feel for the thing.

TBH, she might be a bag of nails. I have been driving a SEAT Inca 1.9 Diesel van for past year. So it is a bit of a difference. Smile

Gear change x is a bit more. How shall i put it... Notchy, but that maybe me being a bit kak handed.


AND the pedal.. FFS what were the french thinking. Is there a MOD for them.. MY big feet UFF!!

My toe hits the steering colum, I am trying to adjust my pedal postition. I tend to use the ball of me foot. Smile

BUT i do love the twisty roads.. Could do with a bit more feedback though.. Wink Used to bikes so I will get over that.

I should point out.. aside from the Inca VAN, this is my first car.. Smile
Yeah!! doing ALL filters. Including fuel.. if there is one..

gear change is always s*** in a 206.

you should be able to spot the fuel filter once you remove the engine cover
