Ive looked at varios makes and models. But would like to get another 206.

you didn't tell him what to look for tho
I would have 2.0Hdi make sure has service record and that cambelt needs doin
Around 96k or 10years which ever comes first. And best to of done water pump
At same time as belt. The 2.0hdi I would say is a good engine out of the range
Of pug diesels around same age

Really...it says on honest johns auto page that the 207 is a far superior version of the 206 in many areas especialy in the gearbox thetes supposed to be a vast improvement on the slightly tricky 206gearbox we all know is a cow for some...if i was given the chance and all cars were theoreticaly the same age and value i would go straight for the 208 because its got the look but im sure most would do the same...
