1st xs
![](http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh153/Rich196/IMG_0012.jpg~original)
In january I replaced my last 206 xs with this one
A picture of old and new
![](http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh153/Rich196/P2040061.jpg~original)
As a result of 15mph crash hit the toe eye and bent the sub frame. My bad :S
This is the new one:

My 1st task was to make it shiney ![Smile Smile](images/smiles/icon_smile.gif)

![](http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh153/Rich196/P2180085.jpg~original)
1st came some new rear lights;

Followed by a sportex back box

Next it is time to get rid of the 14" milk bottle tops and replace with 16" Nimrods;

Also around this time I went on a drive and found this beast;

![](http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh153/Rich196/Meet%20bbq/P7190366.jpg~original)
New lights much better;
![](http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh153/Rich196/P7280387.jpg~original)
Along came some halos;
![](http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh153/Rich196/P8300389.jpg~original)

Right now 2 weeks ago the 206 story came to a close.
The snow came:
![](http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh153/Rich196/last%20of%20the%20206/PC180050.jpg~original)
![](http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh153/Rich196/last%20of%20the%20206/PC180049.jpg~original)
a final clean
![](http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh153/Rich196/last%20of%20the%20206/PC130044-1.jpg~original)
![](http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh153/Rich196/last%20of%20the%20206/PC130040-1.jpg~original)
![](http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh153/Rich196/last%20of%20the%20206/PC130041-1.jpg~original)
![](http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh153/Rich196/last%20of%20the%20206/PC130042-1.jpg~original)
Then 2 weeks ago I found a new car so i stripped mine to part ex it, the only things I left on it were the gti alloys, quick shift, and it was lowered. Mainly because I couldnt be bothered to do this in the snow, and I didnt have a spare set of steelies to put on it.
Stripping

1.6 was expensive to insure for that it was, expensive to tax and the mpg from mine was rubbish, like 300miles from a tank, and now im doing more miles and need the car for work, just wanted something more relaxing to drive comfortble, and faster and it cost me no more to run day to day. I do miss the 206 for its fun and head turning ability
