#31: Re: What makes you still have a 206? Author: kippo2012, Location: DevonPosted: Sat Aug 03, 2013 7:56 am ---- The only reason I have a 206 still is because I've spent so much money fixing the bleddy thing that I can't afford to buy a new car yet!
#32: Re: What makes you still have a 206? Author: lukepug19, Location: OxfordshirePosted: Sat Aug 03, 2013 8:08 am ---- the reason I still have mine is that I rarely see any other modified 206 round by me and I still really like the way they look

In the UK it's difficult to find clean examples of any 206 as around 80% of them have now been bastardised
I blame halfords personaly lol
I blame a lack of decent Saxo's available for them to ruin
After saying I haven't seen any for a while, I just had a black 206 behind me with the huge decals on the side with 206 written down the side.
Yeah I see what you mean though, mine never went wrong, 1.4, 1.6 or 2.0 hdi, never had a problem and even if it did go the sheer amount of parts available are easy.
That one I believe lives around Hereford. I see it frequently!
To keep on topic I don't have one anymore.. Mine *broke* many years ago! Now got a BMW and a RX8. Not quite the same... Both cost a fortune to run!

You think too highly of 206s.
I see you finally got a 180 though, I think it was you that wanted one for ages, nice one.

It's cheap to run, very rarely goes wrong & you can leave it anywhere & not worry about it.
This 100%
Since changing the the thermostat on mine it's back to it's old ways mpg wise.. Last tank was a calculated 38 mpg, computer showing 39.2 mpg.
Although it's had a starter motor and new top mounts in the last couple of weeks it's the most I've spent on it in years.

£15 = 11 litres (2.42 gallons).
200 miles on 2.42 gallons = 82.65 mpg
