Hi Everyone,
Thought I would show the progress and the work I've done on my 206.
I have owned the car for a year and a half after desperately needing a car as my previous car caught fire.
1 elderly lady owner from new, full dealer history and 36k on the clocks. I was warned that it needed bodywork but for £1000 it was worth every penny.
It was a standard car and wasn't in too bad a state as can be seen.
The work soon started and I've not finished yet!

Fitting the suspension was such fun!
Its not my first torsion bar job and it probably wont be my last
Some bolts just don't like coming undone!
Changed the stabiliser links at the same time not that they wanted to come off!
Braided brake lines were fitted all round aswell
Front Splitter added and Lowered about 20mm. She is a daily driver and there are too many speed humps round here to go much lower.

OK Next item on the list is the wheels. I know its not original but I do think they will good especially when all the black plastic has been done in black gloss aswell.

Not a Big job but all the little details are what makes a car!
I've started changing all the bulbs to LED's Map light, Interior Light and Number plate lights now all done.
Its worth paying a little more for the Cree type LED as they are much brighter and the canbus approved ones tend to be more stable and not flicker!

After advice from here and from seeing some of my friends I decided on which wheels to get. I know some of you probably wont agree with my choice but its an individual thing.
First photos I had a chance to take as it was dark last night when I fitted them which unfortunately means they are a little dirty!!

Just needs lowering now! Personally they are a bit to dark for my liking though.
Still looks good though!
