#1: how safe is this car 206, well very after this Author: cat41, Posted: Fri Jan 09, 2015 4:51 pm ----
a massive crash a few months back, rolled it twice in a ditch then upside down, i walked away, speed was about 55.
the car was fine into the corner and fine all the way through it but coming out it span so fast i only had time to try and hit the power but at 90 bhp nothing happened, it went in backwards but started to roll just before the ditch.
i braced by pushing hard with my arms on the wheel and ducked near the gear stick, if i had't i may of not walked away because the roof had caved in.
i could only get out the back door by kicking my way out.
the police, firemen and ambulance was there but they was more shocked than me, they arksed how did i walk away.
i come from a biking background so i,m used to crashing but nothing like this, i was more concerned about 3 grands worth of camera gear but that was ok.
i hit a tree branch 3 corners before the crash and i wonder if the branch damaged the rear wheel because it hit the rear end hard, i got 0 warning of it about to go.

If you read up on fitting sunroofs to 206's there is a reference to roof reinforcing bar ... so that's why they are mainly factory fit.
