#1: Bought my second Peugeot 206 Verve on a cat D. Author: Paul76, Location: AndoverPosted: Tue Mar 11, 2014 10:00 am ---- Hi there folks. So I've bought another 206 Verve on a cat D.
It's a 2006 plate with 45000 miles on the clock. I managed to get this one for £620. It's a really nice tidy car. I have one or two questions though concerning the bonnet and bumper.
Can I put the Cc/ Gti bumper and bonnet on this verve? Obviously on the verve the bumper is colour coded. I cannot find a standard colour coded bumper yet in silver. They've all got the Black bumper protector strips.
I know the wings are different on the cc and gti. Basically I need the whole front end for this car. Is anything to stop me from putting gti/ cc wings, bonnet and bumper on?
This is my second 206 verve I've done. The last one was a 2006 with 33000 miles on it. I had to change the whole n/s suspension, wheel, passenger door and wing to get that mint. Then got the whole side of the car repainted. Here it is after full repair.
I sold the Moon stone Blue one for £2350 after just 3 days of advertising her. So I thought I'd do another one. I learnt loads about the 206 whilst working on her. So I'm hoping I can use my expertise and get my new one looking mint quite fast.
Anyway, thanks for reading. Again, can I put a Cc or Gti front end on her? Secondly, what kind of impact does it take to get these Airbags to deploy?
Neither of the two I've bought have deployed.

Awesome. Thanks for the prompt reply. So all the doors are the same on all models?

Online car salvage auctions. Silverlake, Asm and MotorHog are all good. People bid just like a EBay lot.
Another question. What bumper is on the verve? Is it colour coded standard, gti or a sport bumper? I've tried to work it out by looking at pictures on EBay but I'm still not entirely sure.
The verve front bumper looks like a Gti bumper to me. Another thing, if I put the gti wings on this car, the 14 inch verve alloys will look lost me thinks.
#6: Re: Bought my second Peugeot 206 Verve on a cat D. Author: iainlovatt, Posted: Tue Mar 11, 2014 11:38 am ---- cheers for that
its a sports bumper ie gti bumper. I would upgrade the wheels.

Hi mate. Yes I will put gti wings on as there is a Cc being broken near me. I'd like to get the complete front end of the same car so all the panels match up.
I removed the front end yesterday of the car. The drivers side inner wing is ok but the headlight housing is pretty beat up. I'm going to try and knock back into shape first. If that fails, another section will have to be welded in.
To my complete amazement, the airbag light isn't even being shown displayed on the dash. The first 206 I did , I had to remove the airbag ecu and send it away for diagnostics.

Hi mate. So yesterday I removed wings, inner wings ,bonnet ,bumper, crash beam behind the bumper( not sure what that is called) and lights. Didn't salvage much. The inner wings are good to use and I kept the spot lights. Everything else is scrap.
So today removed what was left of the screen wash bottle, horn, radiator and fan. Removed the whole of the front end. As you can see, there is quite a bit of damage to the headlight housing and front chasis.
Obviously I ain't banging that lot out! Off to the breakers to cut the front end of a peugeot 206 hdi I was ragging today. Will get inner wing, headlight housing and lower beam welded in.
Quite surprised by the amount of damage to the inner chasis. I knew there was damage though as I viewed the car.
So far spent £620.00 on the car.
+ £90.00 on delivery.
+ 20.00 on replacement screen wash bottle, crash beam and grille.
+ 6 hours of my own time.

Author: Paul76, Location: AndoverPosted: Fri Mar 14, 2014 6:16 pm ---- And nearly forgot, the sticker on the drivers door which displays the colour code has gone AWOL. I phoned peugeot and they said my colour code is Mozr. I cannot find any other 206 car or parts with the colour code mozr. There is some 207 parts relating to this code. I think Peugeot are having me on! Is there anywhere else on the car where I can find my colour code?
Many thanks.

The colour could be EZR Aluminium Silver. Can't even find anything near MOZR listed. It's amazing how unhelpful some dealers are getting.
You should be able to find out on servicebox in characteristic folder. You can PM me the last 8 of the VIN and I can check for you.

End of the day it's a 206, a car Peugeot has superseded twice.
Either the dealer doesn't care due to the fact it's just an old 206 OR the part's monkey hasn't got a clue about 206's.
Could be either reason or a combination of both.

Hi mate. Is it the same colour? I've been to Center Parcs the last week. I got back yesterday so I haven't done anything else. This got delivered though.
Everything I need to replace the damage on my car. So next step is to remove the damaged chassis leg, inner headlight housing and bottom cross member. These inner panels are all held together by spot weld.
I will need to drill out the spot weld and then use a panel seam splitter to remove damaged bits from the car. Then the same to the o/s front corner I've bought.
Just waiting for my spot weld drill bits to arrive in the post now.
